PNG buttons added to a layout via INSERT-PICTURE from a FMP Advanced v11.3 Windows client to (assumed to be FMPv11) server hosted database display properly on the Windows client, but cannot be seen from a Mac client. The converse is NOT true: png pictures inserted by the Mac client CAN be seen by both the windows client and the Mac client.
When this occurs, the graphic looks like a place holder, sort of like the picture is missing.
(I am developing on the windows client using FMP11 Advanced, and my client is viewing from FMP11 Standard for Mac, and the database is hosted by a 3rd party. I do not know the version or platform of server installation that is hosting the database.)
This is a problem with this one database. I have used the same insert picture technique in the past to create buttons in several different databases, on several different servers, accross both platforms.
Has anyone seen and solved this problem? Explanations? Solutions? Ideas for more research?
(The mac I was using in situations like this died, and I haven't purchased a replacement.)
Sorry - no screen shots available.
Thanks.
