Re: picture on form

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi Al,

I already created several fields (true/flase) for the bones and now I would
like to connect them to a picture of a skeleton. The idea is when I click on
the Tibia something should happen to that part of the picture so that you
know it is selected.
I thought it would be easy to cut the picture into several parts and put the
parts on buttons. This seems to work but it looks awful. Do you have any
suggestions?
Thanx,
