Hello John, Ernie & Chuck, Thank you for your responses. I'm just getting back to this...
I have 38 instances I believe of static PICT images in our v17 db. So while I'd love to automate this it is not so big really that I can't just work through it. John - I tried your code but it doesn't work. It runs but when I paste the image back onto the form it is the same .pict image. I suspect that I need to run this in v13 and then paste the results into v17. I'll try that. But I seem to remember that the transparency code needs to run in v17. So maybe I need 2 steps... Ernie - I like the idea of converting my static pictures into library pictures, but I suspect I'll have the same v13/v17 issues. I do have some v13 code to convert the library pictures and some v17 code to set the transparency. Chuck - do you think this would be a v17 component that would simplify this process? I do plan to try the v13/v17 idea first I suppose. Thanks again, Alan On Sun, Dec 30, 2018 at 10:21 PM Chuck Miller via 4D_Tech < 4d_tech@lists.4d.com> wrote: > Yes there is.
