Viewing images in filters

[#1]

Hi there,

First post here, so hopefully not a silly one.

If I have image names in a db table, I would like to display the image on the interface. ie, lets say i have a folder called 'images' and in there is an image called 'gb.jpg'

when i filter on the sheet and get to that image as opposed to showing just the file name I would like it to display the image...

... a quicker description would be:

click on a catalogue item and it shows the image.

Thanks

Adrian

Adrian,

You have to use info load, something like this:

info:
BUNDLE LOAD
 User,
 'images\' & User & '.jpg' as UserPicture // assuming username.jpg are your file names
RESIDENT ...;

Next, when you create your listbox (filter), in the Presentation properties, representation, select "Info As Image". Set Image formatting, probably to "keep aspect"

Reagrds,
Michael

Thanks for the information so far. Just for further detail, the images will be stored on a web server. So its how these are called up when clicking on items on the sheets.

Thanks

Adrian,
If you use BUNDLE LOAD instead of the INFO LOAD, the images get into your application as part of data.
