Posted on by nvpc

I'm wanting to change an icon image from "Edit" to "Save", I'm using a variable to store value and assigning the variable to the icon property.

Changeicon.Onselect = Set(varChangeIcon, "Save");Set(varChangeTooltip, "Save")

Reseticon.Onselect = Set(varChangeIcon, "Edit");Set(varChangeTooltip, "Edit")

Icon.icon = varChangeIcon

Icon.Tooltip = varChangeTooltip

When I run this, only the Text to display while hoovering is working, the image is blank but the function within the icon.OnSelect works. Can this be done? changing the image?

Can you please try this code instead and let me know the result? Your code changes the Icon property to text data type but we need to change it to a enum value instead (e.g Icon.Save is an enum).

Icon.icon = Switch(varChangeIcon,"Save",Icon.Save,"Edit,Icon.Edit)

Yes. Your solution put the value "Save" in the Icon property. Save is a text string. My solution put Icon.Save in the Icon property. Icon.Save is a reference to the Save image. That's why it did not work initially.
