HI,
Is there any way to put a little icon into a SegmentedControl item?
Thank you

Yes:
B4X:
Private Sub Application_Start (Nav As NavigationController)   
   NavControl = Nav
   Page1.Initialize("Page1")
   Page1.RootPanel.LoadLayout("1")
   NavControl.ShowPage(Page1)
   SetImageItems(SegmentedControl1, Array (LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "image1.png"), _
     LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "image2.png")))
End Sub
Sub SegmentedControl1_IndexChanged (Index As Int)
   Log(Index)
End Sub

Sub SetImageItems(sc As SegmentedControl, Images As List)
   Dim no As NativeObject = sc
   no.RunMethod("removeAllSegments", Null)
   Dim index As Int = 0
   For Each bmp As Bitmap In Images
     no.RunMethod("insertSegmentWithImage:atIndex:animated:", _
       Array(bmp, index, False))
     index = index + 1
   Next
End Sub

If you want to keep the images colors: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/barbutton-image-color.52365/#post-328103

Like this to keep the images colors? But it doesn't work.
B4X:
SetImageItems(segmentedcontrol1, Array KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "image1.png"), _
     LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "image2.png"),LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "image3.png")))

It works here:
B4X:
Private Sub Application_Start (Nav As NavigationController)   
   NavControl = Nav
   Page1.Initialize("Page1")
   Page1.RootPanel.LoadLayout("1")
   NavControl.ShowPage(Page1)
   SetImageItems(SegmentedControl1, Array(KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley.png"))))
End Sub

Sub KeepOriginalColors(bmp As Bitmap) As Bitmap
  Dim no As NativeObject = bmp
  Return no.RunMethod("imageWithRenderingMode:", Array(1))
End Sub

Yes, but if I have a SegmentedControl with 2 items or more, compiling error. It seems '(' expected but I don't see where.
Here my code for 2 items.
B4X:
SetImageItems(SegmentedControl1, Array(KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley.png"),LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley2.png"))))

KeepOriginalColors is expecting a bitmap not an array of bitmaps.

You need to call KeepOriginalColors again for the second bitmap.

I don't understand, these 2 codes do not work
1
B4X:
SetImageItems(segmentedControl1, Array(KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley1.png"))), _
     Array(KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley2.png"))) )
2
B4X:
SetImageItems(segmentedControl1, Array(KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley1.png"))), _
     (KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley2.png"))) )

The second piece of code is very close. The brackets just aren't in the right place. Actually one set of brackets too many.

The code is expecting SetImageItems(segmentedControl1, Array(bitmap,bitmap))

B4X:
SetImageItems(segmentedControl1, Array( _
            KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley1.png"))), _ '
             (KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "smiley2.png"))) )

If you copy this code into your app and put the cursor on the ending brackets it will highlight the staring bracket and you will see where the problem is.

Ok for dash instead of underscore but I don't see problem with bbrackets in my code below
B4X:
SetImageItems(SegmentedControl1, Array(KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "landes.png"))), _ '
             (KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "autour_moi.png"))), _ '
             (KeepOriginalColors(LoadBitmap(File.DirAssets, "pays_basque.png"))))

The third closing bracket on the top line is closing your array.

Put the cursor on the last closing bracket of the first line. You will see it is the closing bracket for the Array. You want an Array of bitmaps whereas you are currently passing SetImageItems(segmentedControl,Array,Bitmap,Bitmap)

Note you do not need the brackets around the KeepOriginalColors call.

Thank you, now I understand. My poor knowledge of English did not help me to understand. With an example that is much simpler. Thank you again.
