Hi,
we are looking for a way to generate a campsite map on the fly. We have x and y coordinates of (about 500) objects, object ids and names. The user of our application should be able right click to an object and a menu should appear to do further actions.
My first idea was to create a dynamic datawindow with all objects as rectangle. The color of the rectangles can be changed with modify. The map of the campsite should be in the background of the datawindow as jpg (we get them from the campsite owner).SyntaxFromSQL is "very" slow, so I tried to create the datawindow with create.My problem: I cannot see the map in the background, because the datawindow in the forground will not get transparent.Is there a comfortable way to create such a map in PB 2017?Thanks in advanceMartin
