Apparently there are some conditions in its application that I am missing. Every time I try:
answer file "Choose an image:" set the imagesource of char 1 of fld 1 to ("binfile:"&it)
my computer either locks up, forcing a restart, or RR itself quits. I have set the fixedLineHeight to false. What am I missing--what conditions must apply to the character and/or the image?
Hmm. Not sure. The image, of course, has to be in a format that RR can read (jpg and gif are most common). Maybe the image you are choosing is too large, in terms of bytes? I'm not aware of any size restrictions per se, but if you are trying to load a huge image it might monopolize memory somehow. Usually the images I load are very small, like little bullet pictures or small arrows. Most are only a few kilobytes or less. What happens if you choose a very small image?
In the test I did, I just created a new field in a new stack and put a few characters of text into it. I didn't change any of the field properties. Then I used the script above to set the first character's imagedata. Did you try it with a new field?
The fixedlineheight doesn't seem to matter. In my test, the field originally had fixedLineHeight set to true but the image got chopped off at the top. So I set it to false and the image became fully visible. So that part seems to work either way.
