Using external images

You can save images and load them from the server. Then, you can use the CRMGraphicBlock object generate part of the image from the loaded images. The CRMGraphicBlock object provides the SaveAsGifs and SaveAsJPG(text) methods that allow you to convert any loaded image to a JPEG or GIF image, as these are the standard types supported by most web browsers.

You can merge an external image onto a graphic. A color is passed as the transparent color for the external image. You can specify the position of the image with X and Y parameters. If you don't specify the position, it appears starting from 0,0 in the top left hand corner of your graphic.

Example 1

Effect('Merge','c:\\Person.ico');

Example 2

Effect('Merge','c:\\Person.ico,50,50');
