An Image is used to display image files.
Through the window that opens the option presents two tabs: general and content.
The available options are:
Common
Name - Name of the Control. This Name will be used to identify the Control throughout the Project. The name of the Control can only contain letters, digits or underscore (_).
Description - Description of the Control. This Description is for your information only, Kalipso does nothing with it.
Layout
X - X position of the Control
Y - Y position of the Control.
Width - Width of the Control.
Height - Height of the Control.
Condition
Condition - Condition to be verified before displaying the control.
When clicked, a list of conditions already created is accessed. However, you can add more by clicking on the icon on the right. Then a new window appears:
In the table are the conditions already created and on the right side new conditions can be added or edited.
Style
Size Mode - Indicates if the width and height settings should be respected (Fixed) or if they should be ignore and use the image original dimensions (Original Size).
Keep Proportion - When resizing the image to the specified width and height, if this option is set, then the image will not be distorted and a proportional resize will be done so the image fits the specified dimensions.
Abort print if image not found - Aborts the printing process when the image is not found.
After the initial settings in the general tab, you must access the content tab to indicate the data source for the image. Thus:
The Image Control can have the content from a well defined file name and location or an expression can be used to specify the file to be used.
When using a File (as shown in the illustrative image above):
File - The file's path.
Folder on PDA - Leave empty to use Layout's folder of fill with the path if the image is in a different location.
When using an expression:
Expression - The image file will be obtained from an expression.
This allows to use keywords like PFOLDER, DFOLDER and expressions available when using a string expression.
