You may conditionally display your bitmap by creating a computed field similar to this:

bitmap( if( typ_čárového_kódu = "EAN 128", "mamut.bmp", "" ) )

Don't forget to size the computed field with the same dimensions as mamut.bmp.

  • Works great, thanks! Is any solution for rectangle and line ? – J. Oukropec Sep 29 '17 at 07:31
  • Select the line or box. Click formula box near the VISIBLE property in the datawindow painter. In the formula box: if( typ_čárového_kódu = "EAN 128", 1, 0 ) This will make the line or rectangle visible if the code = "EAN 128" Please click the up arrow if my answer was useful. – Eric Glenn Oct 18 '17 at 18:35
  • Hi Eric, thanks for your tip. Is correct, but not in case when datawindow is label ( processing=2 ). In this case VISIBLE property is not visible and PB 11.5 IMHO evaluate line and rectangle each "label row", not each "getrow()" . Instead of 'compute' - 'compute' is evaluating each 'getrow()'. – J.

  • And sorry - I have not enough reputation for 'up arrow' your answer. But tip with bitmap in computed was very useful for me. – J. Oukropec Oct 20 '17 at 06:46
  • I found that the first label on the sheet defines the attributes for the rest of the labels on the sheet. For example, I made the rectangle brush color = if(typ_čárového_kódu = "EAN 128", 0, rgb( 255, 255, 255 ) ) If the first label on the page is "EAN 128" then all the rest of the labels on the page have black rectangles. For my excercise, I setfilter ('typ_čárového_kódu = "EAN 128"'); filter(); then printed then setfilter( 'typ_čárového_kódu <> "EAN 128"' ); filter(); then printed. There are a lot of wasted labels but I got it to work. – Eric Glenn Oct 20 '17 at 17:30
