Hi, here is how I "solved" the suggestion that I made some time ago in: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mementodatabase/kVkPznHbvgM
you can see the sample video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XLRpw4M57UBasically I use a checkbox to show or hide an image that will serve as visual support when choosing the correct value of a dropbox field located just below.
Then I use the value of the field I´ve just selected in the checkbox to insert the corresponding image in the image field.Fields I used:
- title: I only use this text field as a tagText to show the name of the libray. Default value: ORDERS; Font: Bold,Red and bigger than the rest of the text.
- idOrder: Integer number. Default value: 0, autoincrement
- date: date field
- client: text field. Autocomplete
- Show Help boxModel: Checkbox field. Default value: No. I use this field to show/hide the visual help using dependencies with imageBoxModel.
- imageBoxModel: image field used as a tagImage field wich stores image help to fill the dropBox below. Dependecies of the field: Visible when the checkbox is checked. It will be shown by default with triggers. Name of the field property: hidden.
- boxModel: dropBox with values: BX - 2345DF, BXF - 0123, BX - 87562, BXG - 2356
- image: image field that will be filled with triggers with the selected box in the dropBox field boxModel. It will be the thumbnail. I hide this field while creating an entry using dependencies with the checkbox field, not allowing its visibility in all cases.The scripts to Show the Help while filling/updating the fild are...

Everyone knows that a picture is worth a thousand words.
The fact of being able to have an image of support when filling certain fields, would be of great help.
While the tag image object is not available, a way to achive something similar would be to add the property: "set default image" to the image fields.
The reality is that at the moment there is no such property and there is no tag image object, so the only thing we can do is ask the developer to include them in future updates.
But we can still do something. And it´s to use the "text field description" from a text field to describe in words and in the best possible way what a simple image could do. You could also give visibility to the text help using "dependencies of the field".
So, depending on whether or not you have marked a previous boolean checkbox, display or not the text help.
I hope this can help someone.Peter

Scripts of the same type are executed in the order in which they were created. This forces you to create them in a certain order.
