Insert Picture Script

[babylon]

I'm fairly new to FM, but have pretty much grasped most of the features in it. I am having one problem though. I need to write a script that when i hit a button it will bring up the Select Picture dialouge box, so I can insert the picture into a container field. The reason I need this is because I am running in KIOSK mode, and it does not allow the right click feature in the container box, or else i wouldn't care for the button script.

Any help is greatly appreciated.!!

Hi:

You probably want something like this:

Go to field [container]

Insert Picture [ ]

This will bring up a file dialog to let you search for the pic on your system. Its a bit primitive, but its the FM functionality. I prefer to open a window and click hold and drag into the container.

A couple of suggestions: FM6 allows you to batch import images with thumbnail previews. So does the Troi dialog plugin (which I use because I dont have 6 yet).

OMG....haha..i must have tried everything but that. I did try the Insert picture command many of time, but never put the goto Field before that insert picture command. Gotta love it.... THXS A BUNCH Kenneth
