One of the Basic Properties of an Image element is "Source" and it contains the path of the file that is shown in the element.

How can the contents of this property be retrieved i.e. the path name?

(I have tried get the source of image "imageName" for example, but nothing has worked for me.)

hi..

put the filename of image "imageName"
This will put the filepath of the image file into the message box.

be well

Hi exheusden,

try

Code: Select all

put the filename of image "myImage" into myVar

if it is a referenced image, i.e. loaded from a file on disk it gives you the path and name of the file, if it is not a referenced image it will be empty.

Kind regards

Bernd
