Changing pictures

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 12:10:53 GMT

Hi there,

I need your advice here.

Lets say for example that I have only one dimension in my model and with every selection made

on it I need that a diffrent picture will pop out and shown (pls see attachment ).

I've seen it in done in some of the examples over the site but don't know how to do that.

Thanks in advance,

David

P.s. I couldn't attach the 3 pictures ,so I add them as images inside a text box in the sheet "pic".

In my model I have a folder full of pictures.

Save all files in the zip to the same directory, and give it a try.

thanx dragonauta !

No doubt its working !

But still, I'm not sure I figer it out.

How the text box show diffrent pic'? all you did is to "join" the name of the field (Beer in our case) with

'.jpg' , how does it works? I didn't get it...

The trick is to set Representation as 'image' in the General tab of the text object properties.

nice trick

last question,I need that the file will be in a diffrent folder from the pictures.

So I tries to write the whole path in the text box and it didn't work for me?

any suggestions?

building the whole path similar to the uploaded example should work, like


='c:\path\' & Beer & '.jpg'
