Change background source with VBscript ?

[unwired]

is it possible to change background picture using VBscript ?
(like for hotspots ?)

If it is not possible maybe i should use a screen-wide hotspot as a background ....

Hi,

You can change the contence of a hotspot by using VB-script however to change the background of a frame... I have not found a way to do that but that doesn't mean it is not possible.

You could indeed use a frame width hotspot as a workaround.

I hope GM or some else can answer this question because I would like to know this also

Kind regards,

Hi,

Just use the following code:

Code: Select all

Action.LoadAPicture BackgroundObject, "FILENAME"

where FILENAME is the name of the graphic file, located inside the "Hotspot Graphic Files" sub-folder of the "Project Resources", which corresponds to the directory "c:\...\PROJECTNAME\Areas". The supported graphic types are: BMP, JPG, GIF (not animated), WMF, EMF, ICO and CUR. Replace FILENAME with an empty string to unload the picture.

The "BackgroundObject" is one of the objects listed at the end of the following page:
