March 14, 201015 yr 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.
March 15, 201015 yr Author John thanks, could you be more specific? I am not sure I understand. and would you combine text and graphic in this window? eric
March 15, 201015 yr 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. http://fmforums.com/forum/showtopic.php?tid/213125/post/349448#349448 Just adjust it to show the container field with the logo.
March 16, 201015 yr Author Thanks, that helps, will need to experiment and let you know if I manage (I am a novice in FMP). Barbara has a simple example of how to use a new window as a popup here. not sure this helps me, but interesting.

March 16, 201015 yr 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.
