IUserDimAttributes.ImageIndex

Syntax

Description

The ImageIndex property determines calculated dictionary's attribute, which function is Element Icon.

Comments

This property is relevant if the repository is linked to a document containing dictionary element icons. If this attribute is set, an image is displayed next to element names. Image index matches the value of this attribute.

Only an integer dictionary attribute can be used as value of this property.

Example

Executing the example requires a calculated dictionary with the USER_DIM identifier.

Sub Main;

Var

MB: IMetabase;

MObj: IMetabaseObject;

UsDim: IUserDimension;

UsDimAts: IUserDimAttributes;

UsDimAttr: IUserDimAttribute;

Begin

MB := MetabaseClass.Active;

MObj := MB.ItemById("USER_DIM").Edit;

UsDim := MObj As IUserDimension;

UsDimAts := UsDim.Attributes;

UsDimAttr := UsDimAts.Add;

UsDimAttr.DataType := DbDataType.Integer;

UsDimAttr.Id := "ImagesAttr";

UsDimAttr.Name := Attribute for pictograms;

UsDimAts.ImageIndex := UsDimAttr;

MObj.Save;

End Sub Main;

After executing the example the dictionary contains a new attribute functioning as Element Icon.
