Load a generic image if no image is present. Is there a way?
« on: April 18, 2009, 08:57:36 pm »
I am displaying Marquees instead of text in MALA and as you know, not all marquees are available. Is there a way to load a generic marquee image if no image is present? Anyone know?

Yes, You specify it using the Layout Editor

In the editor, select the object, select properties then at the top of the properties window you have the option of setting a default image.

Ok, I added a default image in the editor and it didn't work. Any ideas?

Figured it out! The image needs to be in the layout folder.

THANKS TONS!
