Another note to Keisuke’s instructions. You cannot just change the number. After doing the first one as Keisuke described manualyl, the name and negative number must be replaced by just the new positive number. 1. Change one of the objects manually to a static picture an back to a

Keisuke, Thank you! Your instructions worked well. One thing to note is that the first (only one so far) that I updated this way changed the icon. The name of the picture is "Separateur vertical Mac” and was a small solid grey vertical line. It is now a dotted line. No problem, but I will have

some converted structures contain negative picture resources IDs. you must first assign them positive IDs, but this must be done manually. find in design, search negative number. double click search result (form object). confirm that the object is a resource picture. in property list, change

it is not a bug. the 1st generation of form design in 4D was to bind process variables to objects and use variables directly in code. the 2nd generation of form design (v12) was to keep the bound variable empty and use pointers to reference dynamic variables. the main difference was in the

John, that’s a good idea. In my case, the use of the “Mark One Eyeball” was probably quicker than writing the code and testing and then running. For those with a massive number of forms, it would almost certainly be better to use your ideas. Perhaps someone will write and donate a function to

You could write something to load each form and then use OBJECT Get action to find the problem check boxes. Or open a copy of the structure in 17R and export all the forms to search them with your favorite text editor. John DeSoi, Ph.D. > On Nov 22, 2018, at 9:36 PM, Keith Goebel via

Along the same line as my first question, I have 4 picture buttons that use the same Resource file. The property lists a resource ID, no name. I am pretty sure that the picture is a mask. I use these as movable guidelines over a photo for cropping in a QPix image area. I learned how to do this
