[Solved] OpenOffice3 under OSX Base and images

[randy.vigo]

Hello. I´m trying to make a Library and Authors database. I want to insert a photo of any author and an image of any cover in the forms.
The problem is this, I can configure a place called photo/cover in the tables but then when I make the form it doesn´t appears.
Thanks.

You need to manually add an image control.

There is a tutorial on adding an image control in the NeoOffice wiki. Since NeoOffice is based on OpenOffice.org, the instructions should work fine for OpenOffice.org, if you keep the following things in mind:

• 1) references to the command key in a Neo tutorial are the equivalent to the control key in OOo. (i.e. Command-C becomes Control-C) Note that I'm not sure if this is true with OOo for X11.
  2) control-clicking is the same as right clicking
  3) icons sometimes look different, as NeoOffice 2.2.2 has a custom icon set.
