DCL display image

[saitoib]

Hi all.

I want to create a dialog like the one attached.

The top two lines are values determined before the dialog is invoked, and are displayed for reference.

I think that if I also set the top two lines to edit_box, I can use action_tile to display Thickness and Bend Deduction.

However, that way, the bottom two lines would be in the same category, which is not desirable.

Is there any way to display the unchangeable values in a different image than edit_box?

Like this a dcl with image box

That could be really handy.  Are you really making the image change with each edit-box entry?  How?

And, um, just how are you connecting the legs to the top?  PL Premium?  Kreg tool?

[Sea-Haven]

Image is fixed as example, legs attached via Blue Tac.

Draws a very simple 3d table. 

Could call child DCl's for fixtures etc.

My problem is solved.
I see that I can also specify the content of the text with set_tile.
I guess I misunderstood your question because it was so rudimentary.
Please let me ask again.

Thank you.

That's the idea.

In your image_tile slide, dimension each parameter with an abbreviation...

T (for thickness)

W (for width)

etc.

and show same in the edit_box label...

W, width = |__________|

etc.

how did you manage to enter?
I'm trying and I still can't!
it was to appear the format when you select the side

The answer 1st would be to display a dummy slide then when you pick like A1 the dcl must close but reopen with the A1 slide, its one of those quirks with dcl can not change a slide whilst open, you can do some things where the dcl updates as values are changed eg add d1+d2+d3 display d4.

Now the question why display image,  what advantage is having the sheet displayed anyway ?

You have 10 options can use a 4x3 dcl and display the sheets rather than1 image.
