[Openroad-users] Displaying Image in optionfield

[Kim Ginnerup]

I think the only way to do this if you want more then two images, (in case of two you can use a togglefield).
I think you need to have an imagefield coloumn and the placen the image on the row accroding to your one character code.
If you get it to work I will be very interested in hearing about have much the window will flash when you set/change the image.

Emne: [Openroad-users] Displaying Image in optionfield


In my latest project I have a class which contains a single character attribute to indicate whether a phrase has been Accepted, Rejected or is Pending Acceptance.  Rather than displaying this as text in a tablefield, I would like to display a bitmap (Tick, Cross, Question mark).  If I was displaying the text, I would use an optionfield to decode the single character into the required text.

I though it was possible to do the same thing with a bitmap.  However, I cannot seem to find how to load and display a bitmap in an optionfield.  Is this possible, or am I going to have to add code to copy the image from a (hidden) palette of images into an imagetrim in the tablefield based on the character code?

Thanks,

Martin Bloomfield.
