Relative Paths for PictureBox Image giving error

[Mike]

I am currently trying to take an embedded image out of a report's .resx file and point it (relatively) to a file in an images folder in the same project.  I have tried every combination of the relative path in both Report designer and even setting it in C# in the report's constructor in the code behind.  When I set the pictureBox's value to .\Images\fpi-ontarget-letterhead-black.jpg , it works in design mode, but in preview mode, I get the error: "Invalid URI: The format of the URIcould not be determined."  I noticed that if I set an absolute path on my hard drive, it will work, but I would like to avoid that.  I would like to get it working with a relative path.  Thank you in advance.

Hello Mike,

The described issue is a known bug in the Visual Studio Report Designer which will prevent the PictureBox to display the image during Design and Preview of the report. This, however, does not affect run-time or the Standalone Report Designer, so the image will be displayed correctly when you run your application.
Please find attached a sample project demonstrating this behavior.

The bug is logged in our system for improvement and it will be addressed in a future release of the product.
We apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused.

Regards,

Thank you.  I ended up having to change the image in the Images folder to "Copy if Newer" and Build Action to "Content" to get to see the image, but now it works.
