External Image Commands

ViewJPG("PATH TO EXTERNAL JPG","CENTER")

This command opens external JPG file in new view window. With optional CENTER as a second parameter the window will be centered on the screen.

This command is great for Image disks - where user clicks on a small image in the mbd projects and the full version will be opened in the separate window.

Clicking on the window will close it. The window will remain its position for next time if no CENTER command is used.

ReplaceImage("BITMAP OBJECT","PATH TO EXTERNAL JPG FILE"

This command replace the current image in the Bitmap Object from external JPG file. The image Object will be resized to the size of new image.

This is great if you need to show many big images in the MBD project. For example catalog of houses. You don't have to put all the images in to the MBD objects (This will make it huge and you will need to split it to multi mbd files). Instead just create one page with one Bitmap Objects and the commands will replace the image in that objects from external jpg file. Like that you can easily create huge image kiosks or catalogs.
