Merge Field '\loadimage'

1. offizieller Beitrag

    I am attempting to use a merge field with the special attribute ' \loadimage'. Is there any special processing required to get it to load the image? The Contents.WideStringValue value contains a valid image file path but all that happens is the path string is output and not the image.

    FYI: WPTools V7.21 with the WPReporter Addon.

    regards,
    Steve

    Hi,

    Word uses mergefields with this tag to link to external image files. WPTools understands this RTF syntax, however you cannot use WPTools' merge fields which such a tag. Simply insert an image and specify as to be "linked" - i.e. by setting the property StreamName to the path of this image.

    The images are loaded through the event OnHTTPRequestImage - usually in HTML linked images are found.

    The method InsertGraphicDialog has the optional property AsLink to create such a linked image.

    Regards,
    Julian
