Icon doesn't show up on MenuButton

[pdantuluri]

I am using the MenuButton. On the Menu button, you can set the title and icon. However, icon is not appearing on the Menu button that shows up. I have the following code:

                MenuButton newMenuButton = new MenuButton();
		newMenuButton.setIcon("debugt_obj.gif");
		newMenuButton.setWidth(80);
                newMenuButton.setTitle("New");
                // Set Menu
                //newMenuButton.setMenu();

Clearly, I must be missing something basic. If anyone has a sample to use MenuButton, that would be great. Thanks in advance.

Place debugt_obj.gif under the "images" directory. By default images are resolved relative to public/images/

Thanks, Sanjiv. My images are under /public/images directory. Infact in other components, images are correctly rendered. However, MenuButton is always rendered without icon even when icon is set. I have the following simple onMenuLoad method that has MenuButton.

   public void onModuleLoad() {
	  MenuButton menuButton = new MenuButton("New");
	  menuButton.setIcon("Dashboard-16x16.png");
	  RootPanel rootPanel = RootPanel.get();
	  rootPanel.add(menuButton);
  }

Seems to be a similar issue as with setting icons on tabs when the setClose = true, described here:

However, I found the same work-around can be used for IMenuButton; i.e. create a menuButton like this:

IMenuButton menuButton = new IMenuButton("<span>"+ Canvas.imgHTML("/path/to/my/img.png") + "My Menu Title"+ "</span>");
