Adding dynamic images
Dynamic images can be added to the template using the Dynamic Image Script Wizard only if
you have:
l One or more data fields that contain values on the basis of which the images can be
switched.
l An appropriate image for each group of customers. All files should be of the same type
and they need to be stored in one folder (the Images folder on the Resources pane, or
an external folder). It is important that they are named after the various possible values of
the related data field. Adding dynamic images that are not named after a data field value
requires a self-made script.
To use the Dynamic Image Script Wizard:
1. Add one image to the template. See "Adding images" on page441.
2.
Right-click the image and click Dynamic Image. The Dynamic Image Script Wizard
opens.
The image's ID is used as the script's selector. If the image did not have an ID, it is
automatically generated.
The Dynamic Image Script Wizard composes a file name (including the path) based on
the value of a data field, a prefix and a suffix:
l The prefix shows the path of the image.
l The suffix states the file extension of the image.
l
The file name is the value of the data field(s) in the Field column.
The prefix and suffix are derived from the current image.
3.
If necessary, enter another Prefix and/or Suffix.
4.
Click the first field in the column Field, and then click the downward pointing arrow.
Select the data field to be evaluated.
Click the button Add, to add more fields if you want the file name to be composed of the
value of several data fields. Note that only the suffix of the last data field should hold the
file extension.
The resulting file name, including the path and file extension, is assigned to the src
(source) attribute of the image. You can click Options to verify this.
5.
Click Apply or OK. Now click the Preview tab and browse through the records to verify
that the script works as expected.
