 Posted: Sat Dec 20, 2008 10:46 pm Post subject: Need Bitmap to change colors |
 |
|
Hi,
I have a bitmap image that is a yellow circle on my vds form app that I created. I want to have the circle turn red when ever there is text filled in for edit box 2. If no text is typed into the edit 2 box from the customer I need it to stay yellow. Is this possible? Any clues as to how to do this?
What I believe I need is a if statement of somekind. I am still newbie at this VDS scripting/programming. Not sure how to write it. Can someone help me out?
Thanks

You need 2 bitmaps, one of each colour. Then place the 2nd one on top of the first one. When you want to see the first bitmap you hide the second bitmap. When you want to see the second bitmap you show the second bitmap.
| Code: | DIALOG CREATE,Change Bitmap,-1,0,240,120
DIALOG ADD,BITMAP,YellowBITMAP,10,10,100,100,yellow.bmp
DIALOG ADD,BITMAP,RedBITMAP,10,10,100,100,red.bmp
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON1,30,135,84,24,Show Yellow
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON2,65,135,84,24,Show Red
dialog hide,RedBITMAP
DIALOG SHOW
:loop
wait event
goto @event()
:BUTTON1
dialog hide,RedBITMAP
goto loop
:BUTTON2
dialog show,RedBITMAP
goto loop

The following code will check the edit2's contents every second.
| Code: | :evloop
wait event,1
goto @event()
:timer
if @dlgtext(edit2)
dialog show,redbitmap
else
dialog hide,redbitmap
end
|
This is just one way to do it. Using the exit and/or click styles on the edit box is another.

Hi Dave,
That worked out great. I played with it awhile to suit my
look, feel and play but I finally got it to work for me in my VDS script.
This is really a learning experience for me. I had a small clue about how to do it but was lost. Thanks for helping me out and giving me the scoop on the code I needed. I can now move on to my next stage on the program.
Thanks
