object set format allows you to reassign the picture source dynamically. the syntax is proprietary but you can call object get format on a preconfigured object and work your way from there. alternatively, you could place a picture object on top of a blank button and implement a dynamic picture

Thanks Kirk, I found the problem I was having. PUSH RECORD can't push a record if there is no record to push... so as you suggested no selection. On Mon, 5 Nov 2018 13:51:18 -0800, Kirk Brooks via 4D_Tech wrote: > Stack is full? > The record is not selected? > > I was trying to use PUSH & POP

Stack is full? The record is not selected? I was trying to use PUSH & POP the other day for something. It caused me to re-read the docs about it and I found that over the years I'd forgotten the whole idea for these two commands is to allow you to PUSH the record you are currently using to allow

Changing Picture/3D Button Sets Dynamically...

How might you implement changing or swapping picture (or 3D Button) sets on the fly? I see the picture source can take a variable. Think about the flexibility we have with a display or entry filter where the filter definition is centrally defined with almost no effort. Have you had the buttons

Is there some way to determine if, and what record(s) are on the stack for either the database, or (better) a single table? something like the following, whatever is required to do **Records on stack**: Push ([table]) do stuff Push ([table]) do more stuff for($i;1;**Records on

Peter, In a low transaction environment it's probably not an issue. But if the copy happens to take place during a cache flush you can wind up with a corrupted datafile. It's easily fixed by MSC but a record or two may be lost. I've experienced this myself by making a copy of a live datafile on a

It will work, but it is *not* safe. I would use a 4D backup anyway on the same drive the vm works. In this case they save with the snapshot of the vm the 4D backup files too. Or you have to dive into the feature of volume shadow copies and the supporting of them by 4D. Regards Lutz >
