toggle visibility of objects - how???

[just4fun2k7]

hi,

got a general problem, i couldnt clear by myself...

often i wanna make an image, which works as a switch for visibility -
but dont know how.... :rolleyes

for example:

-image "X" should get visible, if i enter hotspot "A"
-image "X" should get invisible, if i leave hotspot "A"
-image "X" should stay visible, when i click hotspot "A"
-image "X" should get invisible again, when i click hotspot "A" again (was already clicked 1 time) ...
...and so on....

hope i explained good enough to follow,
cause my english istn the best :rolleyes

i would be very happy, if anybody can tell me how to do it. :)

thx :yes

First thing is that you can do all of this with the image object alone (no hotspot object should be needed).

Put this code in the "On Show" event for your page:


-- Setup a variable with the name of the image object
str_ImageName = "Image1";

-- Ensure that the image is invisible
Image.SetVisible(str_ImageName, false);

-- Setup a boolean that help us control the result of clicks on the image
bln_StickyVisible = false;


Put this code in the "On Enter" event for your image object


-- check to see if the image is invisible and if so, make visible
if not Image.IsVisible(str_ImageName) then

Image.SetVisible(str_ImageName, true);
end

Put this code in the "On Leave" event for your image object


-- Check to see if the image has been clicked to stay visible and
-- if not make invisible
if not bln_StickyVisible then

Image.SetVisible(str_ImageName, false);
end

Put this code in the "On Click" event for your image object


-- Toggle to the StickyVisible boolean
if bln_StickyVisible then

bln_StickyVisible = false;
else

bln_StickyVisible = true;
end

Not sure I understand the question... If you never jump to another page, then the one you start with will always be on top.

... but if you only ever want 1 page to be on top, why would you have other pages?

[just4fun2k7]

here's the reason for my wish:

on some pages of my projekt different applications (exe) can be started...
...and some of them are fullscreen.

and to be able to see one specific page of the projekt then,
ill need to do that.

would be great, if its possible anyway.

thx for the great help & support! :yes :yes

easy,

in the page you want to be ontop, put this in the page onshow event


Window.SetOrder(Application.GetWndHandle(), HWND_TOPMOST);

and in every other page put,


Window.SetOrder(Application.GetWndHandle(), HWND_NOTOPMOST);
