Panel View Plus 7 - Image Display

[G_DeMark 2]

  I am using a panel view plus 7 standard HMI (Factory Talk View studio 9).  In my application I would like to display an image (.jpeg) of the selected part.  In this case, I only have about 7 parts.  When the operator selects the part from a list I display the associated image.  However my method for doing this is not very elegant and I am hoping to find a better solution.  What I am doing is stacking all 7 part images on top of each other.  Then I am setting the animation --> visibility to 0 for all images except the selected image.  This method is working but a bit hard to work with and may get more difficult as additional parts are added.  Does anyone know of a better way to manage this application.  Thanks

Use a Multistate Indicator. Assign an Integer value to an Analog tag for each of your images (if you haven't already). Then in the Multistate Indicator, Connections tab, set your tag. In the States tab set the Image and corresponding Integer value.

Thanks much, I think that will do the trick!
