Hi,
I have a JLayeredPane to which I add JLables containg images, effectively allowing images to be dragged around the screen.
So far I have only been able to get GIFs and JPEGs to display - is there anywhere I can abtain a list of which image types I can use?
Regards
Simon

Toolkit's createImage() currently only supports GIF, JPEG, and PNG (since 1.3).
The javax.imageio package can do pretty much anything as long as you have the appropriate plugins installed for it.
In JRE 1.5, javax.imageio supports JPG, PNG, BMP, WBMP, and GIF. Prior to 1.5, neither BMP format is supported, I believe.

Java Advanced Imaging (JAI) gives access to many different file types such as .TIF as well. You can find information and the download at http;//java.sun.com
