Dynamically change imagine in text box, based on list box selections

Fri, 09 Jan 2015 11:42:28 GMT

Hi, I have a number of images and I want to show a specific one based on what the user selects from a list box, (e.g. if the user selects Jan 2015 the image shown will be a graph corresponding to Jan 2015). Currently I have multiple text boxes with the image set as the background, which show or hide conditionally based on what the user selects, but if I want to rearrange my sheet it becomes a nightmare because I've a load of text boxes that have to be moved individually.

So I'm just wondering if there's a way to dynamically change the image that's shown in the text box (so I can just have one text box holding all the images), based on selections made by the user, or if there's any other possible suggests on how to deal with this?

Thanks.

you need to use bundle load, to load all the images that you want from a directory and to link them to your dimensions, then in your chart you can use the function info() to show the image, which is dynamic of course based on the bundle load.
