Re: misleading Quark picture box

Hello Will,

Every picturebox has a "image 1", so ask image 1 for it's properties.

So try this piece of code:
tell picture box 1
if file path of image 1 is not null then
log ("do something")
else
log ("no picture")
end if
end tell

I'he tested it with Quark 6, but it should work also with 4.1



Best regards
Michael Slomski
