Image State Properties

The Image State object is used to show a state or a trend. Usually, you will want to use two or more images to represent the different phases of a state or a trend. For example:

 for sales up, for sales down.

You choose the images via the Image property in the Properties Pane.

From the dropdown list at the top of the Properties Pane, select the image state object whose properties you want to define.

Images Collection

Images

In the Image property, click on the value column and then click the down arrow.

In the Images dialog box, click on a blank row, click   and select an image.

You can use the Data Link  option to set an image.

Current Index

Index is the identifier of the state image. For example, when there are 3 images, the indexes will be 0, 1, and 2.

You can use the Current Index property in a Data Link  definition in order to refer to the different states (images). For example, if “Sales > 100,000 return Index 0” and “if Sales < 100,000 return Index 1”.
