Yeah, I know; stating the crashingly obvious. BUT; I don't see why this should be necessary, if Graphic Objects can have a Label (even though, by default, this possibility is hidden from us) why can they not have icons?
Presumably the answer, like so many answers, is that somebody made a reasonably random decision, not thinking that somebody might, one day, wish to assign an icon to a Graphic object. Trying to work round this one I found that one also cannot assign imageData to a graphic object: put the imageData of img ID 1007 into grc "gXXX" NOR can one do this sort of thing: put img "m.png" into grc "gXXX" what is faintly misleading is that the ScriptEditor in RR 4 dp-4 doesn't find anything wrong with these lines of code. The best way round this problem seems to be something like this: set the pattern of grc "gXXX" to 1007 where 1007 is an imageID. The only snag is that your Graphic Object shouldn't be much larger than the image you are using as an icon unless you want it tiled as a repeating pattern. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why not do away with hard-and-fast defined object types and have a generic OBJECT which could have its TYPE defined just as all its other properties? This would make things considerably more flexible. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
