inserting and removing images from card...

[tjo]

I'm a noob and did search the forums before posting, any help is appreciated...

I am trying to create a simple quiz type game that requires me to insert and remove various images from a card.

I tried adding a blank image field to my card and then using something like

Code: Select all

put "./imagefolder/image.png" into field "ImageField" 

Hoping it would insert the image, however this did not work. I played around with the file path a bit, but had no luck.

I also tried adding the image to the card manually then setting the visibility to true/false when I need the image to appear/disappear. I am not sure if this is a good practice to use as I will be using up to 100 different images. I tried

Code: Select all

set the visible image of "ImageField" to false

however it did not seem to work for me.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer advice,

TJ.

Hi TJ,
Welcome to the forum

Here is the lesson:
http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4 ... ing-images
The bit you want is
"set the filename of image ..."
Lookup filename in the dictionary as well.

Thank you very much Simon. I actually skimmed over that lesson but must have missed the set filename part. It worked right away.

Thanks again,

TJ.

Hi TJ,

1. welcome to the forum!

2. I recommend to work through these stacks to get the basics of Livecode:

And please take the LC objects as they are (at least when beginning ) !
FIELD = TEXT!
IMAGE = IMAGE
etc...


Best
