Hi everyone,

Im currently using the S60 Developper Tools 3rd Edition SDK Emulator, and I updated the Emulator with the PythonForS60_1_4_3_SDK_3rdEd package. As I read in the documentation, the Graphics modul should work without any problem. But I cannot open any jpg image using:

bgimage=Image.open("c:\\data\\images\\pictures\\logo.jpg")

I tried different format, with '' or with u"" but doesnt work either. So is it a problem in my code, or the emulator doesnt support this?!?

I even tried with a short path like and putting my file directly into the path where the script is executed?

bgimage=Image.open("logo.jpg")

I get the error:
File "c:\resource\graphics.py", line 76 [...]
SymbianError:[Errno -20]
KErrNotFound

And the worse in that problem is that it works perfectly fine on the Nokia N95...


Thanks to anyone helping me on that!

hi qcalv again
i have earlier tried this image open function in my 2nd edition FP2 and at that time it worked for me.
And i hope it should work for your case as well. can tell the dibo what error message did you get.

OK, I've tried it on S60 3rd ed. FP1 SDK with PyS60 1.4.3 and it works. It opens the image (I stored it in "c:\\data\\images\\pictures\\logo.jpg", but that shouldn't matter).
It also shouldn't matter if you used 3rd ed. SDK withou FP1.

That path is not an absolute Windows path, but a relative emulator path. Your emulator C-drive is located somewhere deep inside c:\Symbian installation. For example mine is at:

C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd_MR\Epoc32\winscw\c

That means I would have to save your image at:

C:\Symbian\9.1\S60_3rd_MR\Epoc32\winscw\c\data\images\pictures\logo.jpg

Just to make sure you realized this

Hi JOM!

Very weird thing, I tried that as well, I saved the picture exactly where you said, because I guessed so too: the emulator was using not the usual windows path. But it didnt work. However I probably made a mistake in the syntax at that time, or not. Well Ive no clue, all I know is that yesterday when I tried again at home, it worked!!

So the best thing to do, when playing with pictures, is to put them there. Thank u
