While a datafield is for displaying text from a database record, you can use this element to display images that are stored in a database. The image format is BMP, CMS, GIF, ICO, JPG, PCX, PNG, SCM, TIFF, TIFF CCITT 3 and 4, Multipage TIFF, Packbits, LZW, (most flavors), DXF, PCD, TGA, EPS, WMF.

The following options are available:

Datafield:

The field that contains the image. If the datafield property is set to a database field, the FORMachine 1.0 engine will try to find a image file whose name equals that of the data field's content and load it.

Stretch picture automatically:

The option is used to stretch the picture so it fits exactly into the element's size, else the picture will be cut off if there is not enough room, or space will be left empty if there is too much.

Center picture:

If the element is bigger than the picture and the "Stretch" option is not activated, the picture will be centered in the element instead of being placed in the top left corner.

Alignment:

Aligns the image on the band.
