|
ImageID |
Required attribute. The ID of the Image element that is to be displayed for the element specified in the ElementID attribute. |

Parent Elements
| Element | Description |

Contains all image reference definitions in a management pack. |
Remarks
ImageReference elements are used to associate class type instances with an image.
When defining an image to associate with a user interface-related element, you should always define two: a 16x16 image (u16x16Icon) and an 80x80 image (DiagramIcon). This will ensure that the class type is represented properly in all places in the console.
Example
The following XML sample illustrates how to associate
an Image element with a ClassType element by using
the ImageReference definition. In this case,
Microsoft.Exchange2007 class type instances will
appear with the specified custom images in the console.
