How to add image to dialog box?

[Anonymous]

Hello,
I want to add a slide image to dialog box. However I have a white screen on the box.
Can anyone help me add the image?
Thanks in advance.

(setq x (dimx_tile "picture") 
      y (dimy_tile "picture"))       
(start_image "picture")	
(slide_image 0 0 x y "2ddraw")	
(end_image)

I don't remember why this may help, but in one of my old codes I had added a line, as I will add here (in blue) to yours...

(setq x (dimx_tile "picture") 
      y (dimy_tile "picture"))       
(start_image "picture")
(fill_image 0 0 x y 0)  ;; black it out
(slide_image 0 0 x y "2ddraw")	
(end_image)

Also, it appears that I forced the complete file name, as in

(and
  (setq slide "2ddraw")
  (setq file (findfile (strcat slide ".sld")))
  (slide_image 0 0 x y file)
)

I hope my deteriorating memory of the Battle of Hastings helps.  All I really remember is that it was in 1066 when I was just a youngster.
