drawImage - cannot convert from 'System.Drawing.Bitmap' to 'Cosmos.System.Graphics.Image'

[GFrawing]

I started building an operating system in C# with cosmOS and trying to insert an image I got this error
ps. I'm just starting C# (I was using python before)

The error: cannot convert from 'System.Drawing.Bitmap' to 'Cosmos.System.Graphics.Image', how can i convert it?

The code:

canvas = FullScreenCanvas.GetFullScreenCanvas(new Mode(640, 480, ColorDepth.ColorDepth32));
canvas.Clear();

System.Drawing.Image i = SD.Image.FromFile("Test/image.png");
canvas.DrawImage(i, 100, 100);

This code is what you will need:

canvas.Clear();

canvas.DrawImage(new(File.ReadAllBytes(**path**))), 100, 100);```

Note that Cosmos doesn't support PNG, you have to use BMP

You cannot access files under Windows from within Cosmos. You have to include the file you want to use in the vmdk and use the path in the fat file system. See here for another approach on how to include files in your OS https://cosmosos.github.io/articles/Kernel/ManifestResouceStream.html

I did it, it doesn't give me any error inside graphics but in kernel.cs it gives me error here:
public static GF_OS.Data.Graphics graphics;
gives me this error:
The type or namespace name 'Data' does not exist in the namespace 'GF_OS'. A reference to the assembly is probably missing.

Maybe you did a typo

kernel.cs I didn't really touch it, I think it's due to the fact that in graphics.cs I put the embedden resource property.

It sounds like that manifest resources which often end up under project.data are conflicting with your own namespace. It might be easiest to just change the namespace of the graphics class
