[Openroad-users] Displaying Image in optionfield

[Antill, Jim]

Martin,
 
Am I right in presuming that the optionfield is used to decode the values and
isn't shown to the user in the tablefield?
 
If so, instead of holding the code/decode values in an optionfield could you
use a ListViewField? The ListViewField uses a choicelist that is composed of
ChoiceBitmap objects, each of which has an enumvalue, enumtext and an
enumbitmap.
 
Hope that helps.
 
Regards,
Jim

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.
