With the tests I was running over the weekend, by using a separate stack as a container, I was successful in importing (and using) some 4300+ images (21mb) A second attempt with considerably larger image files allowed me to import 36Mb+ before I ran this old laptop out of RAM. Silly me! ;) The only "features" of the test stacks, were an edit field, button and blank image, allowing me to search for and then display an image by name. -Doc- ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
Problems with Importing multiple images
OK : )
Thanks to the following Help I fixed all my problem
Stacks.
STEP 1: (Resetting the previous Image IDS--instant
fix)
By Chip:
Try starting with a high 6 digit number for the first
image
you import, then add 1 to it and set the next image's
ID to it.
I think this should solve your problem.
OR create a button after you've loaded all your images
and set the
script of it to:
on mouseUp
--> CREATE A RANDOM HIGH STARTING ID
put 123456 into tID
repeat with y = 1 to the number of cards in this
stack
go cd y
repeat with x = 1 to the number of images on this
card
set the id of img x to tID
add 1 to tID
end repeat
end repeat
end mouseUp
STEP 2: (New Imported Images IDs)
BY Thomas McGrath III:
Change Image ID's on immediately on import (espically
File imports)
Change icon IDs in buttons that contain the graphic or
use the short name property
set the icon of button "mybutton" to {imageID |
imageName}
STEP 3: (Where to set the New Imported Images IDs)
BY Jim Lyon
To change the id of the new imported Image open The
property inspector and make the change by (adding 1 to
the last number or setting to some large number)
Step 4: (I Think...)
And Thanks, Xavier we have all had similar problems
with that pesky send button.

Re: Problems with Importing multiple images
Jim and others, Actually another problem is with buttons that use images since they won't update to the 'new' IDs. Renaming is just the first part then the buttons need to be updated with the property inspector to the new IDs. If the button icon used a name instead of the ID(or either or) then it would not happen at all.

Two suggestions. I've had this problem since i started DeepCyberSpace and XOS last year.

Kathy, Be careful with the import folder menu as well. I have had issues with it. Also, I just got bitten by the changing ID's issue. I cloned a card and then all of the images from the first card changed IDs. Use the file menu import image or import image as control and then immediately change IDs to play it safe.

Thanks Chip for answering my quarry. :) I will use this great script. Do you think the alwaysBuffer property which I set to true in the Stack Inspector during the Image importing could be adding to this Importing corruption as well?

Re: Problems with Importing multiple images
Hi Kathy, The problem is probably with image ID's. You can change them using the inspector. Try starting with a high 6 digit number for the first image you import, then add 1 to it and set the next image's ID to it. I think this should solve your problem. OR create a button after you've loaded all your images and set the script of it to: on mouseUp --> CREATE A RANDOM HIGH STARTING ID put 123456 into tID repeat with y = 1 to the number of cards in this stack go cd y repeat with x = 1 to the number of images on this card set the id of img x to tID add 1 to tID end repeat end repeat end mouseUp then save your stack best, Chipp ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
