Adding picture in a popup message

Technical Questions
1

Hello everyone,

In order to guide the operators during their work, I want to add pictures and diagrams in my programs pop-pup.
Is there a way to do that ?

Thanks

An inbuild polyscope popup cannot contain a picture I’m afraid. In order to implement a popup containing images, you would have to wtire a URCap which implements its own popups in java. The easiest thing to do is to use the popups supplied by the JOptionPane class. There are various methods availble to create different popups, including showOptionDialog which will allow you to specify a custom icon.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the answer !

I edit a pop-up by using HTML codes and it works pretty well.

This is a very easy task, you just need to use the script popup message, maybe the one from the teach pendant works too. Since the controllers just displaying HTML you can use the available HTML tags that URCap can use which is a limited set but gets the job done.

For instance, we store images on the controller in the programs folder and can use the following code to display it on the screen.

popup("<h1> Door Not Open </h1> <p> <img src=file:/programs/greenTouchButton.png height=200 width=257 > </p> <p> </p> <p> Please ensure it is safe to open the lathe door, and press green touch button </p>")

you can also use it to display an image from a website or a website

popup("<h1> Image from website </h1><p> <img src=https://global.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/universal_robots/original/2X/c/c1fc4aee5c7b6fc24f41af09cd5a230ed3c732d0.jpeg height=200 width=200 /> </p>")

such as this…

popup("

Hello,

Is it possible to use a script to integrate a drop-down menu in a pop-up window to select different variables?
mbush in your picture it looks like this?

That’s just a static image that is being displayed on the web somewhere, we are just calling it back for display. You can popup a variable for the operator to fill in but I do not know of a way to display a combo box of variables like is shown in that example.

Ok, thank you very much for the answer. It’s a shame that this isn’t possible.
