setting the UGII_BITMAP_PATH

It is commonly thought that you can set the UGII_BITMAP_PATH to one path only. Resulting in you moving all the bitmaps to one path. This causes managability issues, and confusion. Instead concatonate the UGII_BITMAP_PATH variable:

example:
set UGII_BITMAP_PATH=%UGII_BITMAP_PATH%;c:\myOther\path\bitmaps

You can add one none, to many. This may cause a performance issue since NX will need to search all these paths for bitmaps. If there are bitmaps with the same name in multiple locations, I’m not sure if it will fail or which one it will use. Probably the first one wins.

For best results and manageability I would put all the bitmaps for a custom application in the application custom directory. The reason is because after a few custom applications are installed and they use the same location, changing icons, removing icons gets to be very teadious, since there is no way to know for sure where it is being used. By putting the icons in each applications specific directory may cause a performance issue as well. If it does this is something the UGS NX development needs to address.
