[Gtk-sharp-list] Image resize on image widget control

[Andrew York]

Use the Gdk.Pixbuf to resize the images like this:

img.Pixbuf.ScaleSimple(50,150, Gdk.InterpType.Nearest);
or when you declare the new Pixbuf you can resize it.

I have found this method the easiest way to get Pixbuf from a resource, this assumes the resource is the current assemble of course.
Gdk.Pixbuf.LoadFromResource("resourceImageId");


I hope this helps.
