dynamic images 8.5

[dcmagain]

i have searched and found nothing promising, but our backs are up against a wall

we have a client that is using crystal reports viewer 8.5 and they want to put images on these print out
they are not really reports, more like signs

so we can get images on the sign, and we can even hide the images - although this is ugly
but now they mentioned they want the images to be centered
and this does not seem to be possible
basically we have 6 categories for things and an image for each category
if the thing only has 2 categories, those images need to be next to each other and centered
and all we have to input to the viewer is xml

is there anyway to do this?

thanks

This is confusing; can you try again to explain this?

 

[dcmagain]

we need to show images on a crystal report - we got this

we need to hide some of these images based on criteria - suppress does this

we need to take whatever images are left showing and place them next to each other and center them on page - do not know how to do this

we have 6 images on report and if the first one and last one are supposed to show, then theres a big gap in between because the images are in a fixed position
can we move these images together?

Sure, but didn't you think that would depend on where the images are?

Try posting specifics rather than descriptives.

One old trick is to build out multiple sections with the layout you'd want for each scenario, and then conditionally suppress the sections based on the parameter or whatever your criteria is that changes it.

Also, this is really a Crystal Reports question - as are many other current threads. It might be a better idea to take them to the Business Objects: Crystal Reports 4 Other topics Forum (forum149). You've got some great CR expertise here (not me), but might find more in 149.
