Report Designer: Picture Control

Drag an element in the right pane to change its positioning properties, such as height, left, or top.

Picture Control Property

Description

Height

Specifies the height of the picture.

Keep Size

Scales the picture uniformly (in X and Y). This effect is visible only in the preview.

Left, Top

Positions the picture relative to the section borders.

Locked

A locked control cannot be moved with the mouse, which prevents moving it unintentionally. Specify offsets for Left and Top to move a locked control.

Picture File

Selects the picture to be displayed. The default path is <AutoCAD Map 3D>\pics.

Note:

Although the picture files can be stored in any folder, it is recommended that you store them in <AutoCAD Map 3D>\Pics or a subfolder. Then, they are available with the dynamic path <AutoCAD Map 3D>\Pics. If you use picture files with a static path, they are not available on a different computer unless the path is exactly the same.

For variants and Web version, see Form Designer: Picture Linker - Properties

Priority

Controls the drawing priority of text and pictures. For example, this would prevent a picture covering a text control. Controls with a low priority value are drawn first. Example: A picture with priority 10 covers a text with priority 1.

Save and reopen the report to see the result in the preview.

Suppress

Suppresses the control under certain conditions, such as a function or a select statement that produces either True or False (0 or 1).

Width

Specifies the width of the picture. Can also be specified with the mouse.
