Hi Mark,

I have a menu which is called Appearance... one of the menuitems is "Set
background image to..." and I would like to have a cascading menu coming off
this which will display the contents of an image folder. Choosing one of
these image files will then set the image of a graphic to that particular
file.

Can anyone explain to me how to accomplish this?

Thanks,
Mark
try this:

This example presumes that your images are in the active directory.
Please drop a line, if they are in another folder. That will require
a little bit more scripting.


on opencard
## or whenever you want to prepare that button...
get the files ##!!!
repeat for each line xxx in it
put TAB & xxx & CR after my_images
end repeat
## "repeat for each" is insanely fast ;-)
## but read-only. So we just fill another variable
## with the stuff that we need...
##Imn this case a TAB for each level of submenus
delete char -1 of my_images
get btn "Your button name here!"
put CR & my_images after line \
lineoffset("Set background image to...", it) of btn "Your button name here!"
end opencard


Now your button has the correct submenus.

Now you will have to script this in that button:

on menupick which
set the itemdel to "|�
## This is the itemdel for submenus
## Submenus are seen by the engine as "menuitem1|submenu1!
switch item 1 of which
case "Set background image to..."
set the filename of img "Your image here!" to item 2 of which
break
...
end switch
end menupick

Hope this helps.

Have a nice weekend.


Regards
