I will need to indicate somewhere that this facility is available as not every one will guess that you need to click on the photo to enlarge it and that the links are available.

I agree.  Perhaps Ron might consider that if _AreaMap is not empty then add a text line under Picture description saying "click on photo for further information", or similar.

If you hover over the thumbnail image there is already a 'tooltip' indicating to click for more info. I'll add a note (from Dictionary) under the enlarged image in the popup frame e.g.

N.B. Hover cursor over features such as faces for details, then click for further information if available.

maru-san Sometimes you just want to show the name without a link. At the moment if you have marked a person with name, but without link, clicking this persons brings up the picture in the upper frame, which should not happen.
 The user should remove the HREF attribute from the corresponding AREA tag if no link is present/required.

Iain,  the tag does not recognise new lines, so when you edit the input make sure you bring each area reference together like .....><....  making it all one line without breaks.

Thanks for the tip, needless to say it worked a treat.BigGrin:

I noticed that the links don't work when I first click on the photo at the top right of the family page as the whole photo opens in the lower frame and from there the links work.

This will make it easier for those who don't have the djvu plugin but I will need to indicate somewhere that this facility is available as not every one will guess that you need to click on the photo to enlarge it and that the links are available.

I must admit that not needing a plugin could be usefull.

If you use IExplorer you need plug-ins for svg graphics - or has it changed with v.7?

I was actually referring to the djvu plugin though no plugins at all would be more universal. I don't know about v.7 as I still have IE6.

I have done all the steps but can't get more than one link in the photo as when I cut and paste all 12, only the first one goes into the tag.

When I click on the link in the image in the family page the whole image opens in the lower frame, then when I click on the link in the image in the lower frame, the targets htm opens in the upper frame just like the djvus do though there is only one link memorised.

Has anyone got it work?

Yes. It is very easy to accomplish. I am a little red faced because I had not placed util.vbs in the appropriate folder Blush

I like the way that the information is stored in the custom tag. It allows different presentations with the same photo.

Congratulations again Ron, this report is getting a little like the cart leading the horse, well done.

IainTait I don't see where the coordinates, supplied by the software you suggested, need to go in GenoPro.
They are placed in the _AreaMap Picture Custom Tag for ther Picture in question, after removing newlines and the <MAP ...>, </MAP> tags and any <IMG ..> tag.

I'm still none the wiser as I can't find the "_AreaMap Picture Custom Tag " for my pictures so will redownload and have a look at the instructions. Ermm

PS. The instructions were perfect and even I could understand them, so now I have an _AreaMap Picture Custom Tag and will give it a try. BigGrin:

poolzone (4/10/2007) I get the following fault when generating my report..

Custom Tag '_AreaMap' in Layout 'A custom tag is a generic placeholder to record additional information. You can customize those tags by using the Tag Editor from the Tools menu.' is marked as system or private and has been excluded

This is not a fault, just a warning to indicate that the Custom Tag(s) will not appear in any 'Additional Information' section. The contents of the tag are still available for other processing. I had already thought about removing it so now my mind is made up!

I do not get the picture located in the popup frame.
Let's see, you did put util.vbs into the 'Code' folder and created the Custom Tag for the Picture (not Individual) didn't you?

maru-san it might be a good idea to put the step-by-step instruction (w/pictures) as a pdf file for new features next time
I know, the problem is I love the programming but loathe the documentation! I'll get around to it soon. Has anyone got it work?

IainTait I don't see where the coordinates, supplied by the software you suggested, need to go in GenoPro.
They are placed in the _AreaMap Picture Custom Tag for ther Picture in question, after removing newlines and the <MAP ...>, </MAP> tags and any <IMG ..> tag.

And yes, some good points, appleshaw I agree DjVu has some very nice features, but cannot be currently implemented in the Report without a some hand cranking of the Html and use of a plugin.  This image mapping 'feature' is just for those who want a simple implementation of a mapped clickable image.

I am also considering extending the text 'processing instruction' facility to make it easier to drop your own bits into the popup frame, e.g. <?popup clickable text?> followed by html to be embedded into a fixed 'multimedia' type popup frame, allowing videos, DjVu files extra jpgs etc. to be more easily linked from a comment or Custom tag and appear in the popup frame, with its title and min/max & close buttons.

Update: I have now added a Help pdf to my earlier post with the skin files.Smile
