Hi,

You can do it something like this:

import appuifw, graphics

#Open the image
img=graphics.Image.open("C:\\picture.jpg") #For example

#Create an instance of Canvas
canvas=appuifw.Canvas()

#Set it as the backgroung
appuifw.app.body=canvas

#Put the image on it
canvas.blit(img)

hi Faisal Rehman
Just a bit to add also dont forget to resize your image so that the image will be applicapable universal.
For this i suggest before applying the image to the canvas body just resize the image according to your screen size.

if u want the image to be "applicapable" universally why tell him to resize it according to his screen size? Wuldn't it be better to resize with sysinfo.display_pixels() so that it would work on any mobile phon?

hi n6630
yes we can do that also but if we apply this code before applying the image to the canvas then also i think the image will fit in all phones.

img = graphics.Image.open("image name")
img.resize((canvas.size))

yes but u didnt say that. U just said "resize the image according to your screen size", so I thought u meant to hard-code the size

hi n6630

But anyways i think faisal and you must be clear with my point now.
