Making button icons visible

Featured Replies

I am building a database for kitchen cabinets.

I have drawn some images of cabinets and pasted them onto a layout.

These images act as a button to launch scripts that are germane to each type of cabinet.

For example: I use a picture of a four drawer stack to start the script that adds 4 drawers to my cut list and orders 4 sets of drawer slides for tommorrows fabrication.

I would like to be able to include a copy of each button image on each record. If the record was about sink base cabinets the picture of sink base would show up. If the record was about a 3 drawer bank the picture would indicate a 3 drawer cabinet.

All of this is to provide an immediate visual clue of what the record is about.

Can anybody help me here with this?

Thanks.

You can't directly copy a button image, but you can create a repeating global container field 'gImages' and put each of the images into a repetition of it. Then, as part of the buttons' scripts, include:

Set Field (ImageField, GetRepetition(gImages,theImageNumber)

Where ImageField is a regular container field on the layout, and theImageNumber contains the number of the image you want to insert.
