Not able to add iconImage to DicomDir

#1 Post by deepak.bme »

Hi All,

I am not able to add icon Images to DicomDir file. I am using following code to add Icons

mDcmDirObj->enableIconImageMode(OFTrue);
mDcmDirObj->setIconPrefix("Icon");
mDcmDirObj->setIconSize(128);
DicomDirImageImplementation imagePlugin;
mDcmDirObj->addImageSupport(&imagePlugin);

getting following warning msg:-
cannot create monochrome icon from image file, using default

Can you please help me on this.

And, did you make sure that the PGM file with the filename prefix "Icon" exists?

Did you read the documentation of setIconPrefix()? Why do you want to create the icon images from externally stored PGM files, if you don't have them? By default, the icon images are created from the referenced DICOM files.
