santral -

This code gets the properties of the object "Image1" and stores them in a table called iProps. The entire path and name of the image will be returned. If you just want the name, you will have to use a string function to extact it.

iProps = Image.GetProperties("Image1")
Dialog.Message("Image Name: ", ""..iProps.ImageFile)

This should get you started. HTH

Here's something you may try:

iProps = Image.GetProperties("Image1")
title = String.Right(iProps.ImageFile, (String.Length(iProps.ImageFile) - String.ReverseFind(iProps.ImageFile, "\\", true)));
Dialog.Message("Image Name: ", ""..title)

hth

really thanks holtgrewe
it helped me...
and the final code :
dynamic label for each image

function imgname ()
iProps = Image.GetProperties("Image1")
title = String.Right(iProps.ImageFile, (String.Length(iProps.ImageFile) - String.ReverseFind(iProps.ImageFile, "\\", true)));
Label.SetText("Label1",""..title);
end 

thanks again holtgrewe ....

[santral]

and I wrote a new one
in previous one text was image.jpg
now the new one without .jpg ->

function isim ()
iProps = Image.GetProperties("Image1")
uzunluk = String.Length(iProps.ImageFile) - String.ReverseFind(iProps.ImageFile, "\\", true);
title = String.Right(iProps.ImageFile, uzunluk );
tek = String.Left(""..title ,uzunluk - 4 );
Label.SetText("Label1",""..tek);
end 

Is it good code, holtgrewe ? did I learn this work!

[santral]

heeyyy....
when I build it ,names changed and become ap20,ap30,......
how can we solve this problem ???

[holtgrewe]

The code appears to be okay; however the function will only work with "Image1" and "Label1" the way it is coded. If you want this to work with multiple Images, you will need to pass the Object names in the function.

Check the help file on how to create functions:

Here's one way - maybe not the most efficient...

function isim (img, lbl) 
iProps = Image.GetProperties(""..img) 
uzunluk = String.Length(iProps.ImageFile) - String.ReverseFind(iProps.ImageFile, "\\", true); 
title = String.Right(iProps.ImageFile, uzunluk ); 
tek = String.Left(""..title ,uzunluk - 4 ); 
Label.SetText(""..lbl,""..tek); 
end 

Then when calling the function use:

function("Image1", "Label1")
-- etc.
function("Image6", "Label6")
--etc. 

I have not tested this, so you may have to tweak it some to get it to work for you.

thanks holtgrewe...you r very helpful..
I could solve this problem. I made a LargeImage and all images goes here when clicked,so I only used LargeImage in code...and one function that you give is enough for me,and worked quite good....

BUT the main problem becomes after building..... There are .dat file names instead of image names
for example before build ; name = mypicture1 or mypicture2 ...etc
after build ; name = ap45 or ap46 .....etc

how to solve this problem ???

I suggest you do not include your pictures in the project when publishing.
Instead, keep them in the source folder so you could load them using

-- example
Image.Load("Image1", "AutoPlay\\Images\\indigorose.png");

If you do not want users to be able to edit/open the pictures i suggest you create a .zip archive and add all your pictures inside.
If so, you could use something like

--[[ lets assume your password for the zip file "imgs.zip" is "mypassword" ]]--
zipfile = (_SourceFolder.."\\imgs.zip") --where the file that has all the pictures in
Zip.Extract(zipfile, {"*.*"}, _TempFolder, true, true, "mypassword", ZIP_OVERWRITE_ALWAYS, nil);
