I trying to add images to my WPF windows but I'm not able to. What I tried to do is to add Source to the Image Xaml and the image does display on the designer, but when I run the program the image is not displayed

    <Image HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="197" Margin="0,0,0,64" 
VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Width="355" Source="pack://siteoforigin:,,,/Resources/Airplane1.jpg"
 Grid.ColumnSpan="7"/>

Suppose that you put your image at Resources an it's build action Resource, just try to put :

<Image HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="197" Margin="0,0,0,64" 
VerticalAlignment="Bottom" Width="355" Source="/Resources/Airplane1.jpg"
 Grid.ColumnSpan="7"/>

enter image description here Let me know if it won't work

  • I tried it. I won't work. It was the same problem: The image is shown on the design view but when I run the program the image disappears. – John.P Apr 24 '15 at 08:21
  • Are you sure your build action is Resource – MRebai Apr 24 '15 at 08:23
  • What do you mean by build action? – John.P Apr 24 '15 at 08:25
  • Just select your image and you will find the build action – MRebai Apr 24 '15 at 08:29
  • Thank you it worked. It was set to "none" but now when I set it to Resource it worked :) – John.P Apr 24 '15 at 08:35
