Alternative Image
« on: July 24, 2014, 09:57:28 pm »
I want to replace an object's image with an alternative image that I created using an EMV/WMF file (I used Visio to create the MWF file). How can I ensure that the object's name appears within the image and not below the image when I replace an object's image with the new alternative one?

Not sure you can do that.  You can hide the name using the "Hide name under image" option, and then you might need to add a text element, bring it to the top in the z order and place it over the image.

If you apply the image using a shape script, you can write the name over the top, like this:
Code: [Select]
shape main
{
      v_align="center";
      h_align="center";
      image("ImageName",0,0,100,100);
      printwrapped("#NAME#");
}
