FMP Advanced 8, OS 0.6.2.

I have a database with a pull down menu (3 options) to change the sender when printing a envelope. Now instead of the company name typed out, I want to use the logo on one occasion and typed text on both other occasions.

Does anybody know how to do this in the pull-down menu? or have an other way of doing this? Thanks.

Use a new window to pop open a small list view layout.

John thanks,

could you be more specific? I am not sure I understand. and would you combine text and graphic in this window?

Basically, create a table thats stores the company name in a text field and logo in the container field if you do not have one already.

Then create a small list view layout with your text field and container.

Now have a script so that a new window opens with the list.

Barbara has a simple example of how to use a new window as a popup here.

Just adjust it to show the container field with the logo.

Thanks, that helps, will need to experiment and let you know if I manage (I am a novice in FMP).

Thanks.

I had seen this, but not sure how to combine the text and images in this.

My previous post explained how to do it. You need a container field to store the logo and text field to store the name. Create a list layout with those two fields.
