extendable cluster of named images

[stoeckel]

Hi,

I need to create a cluster containing named images programmatically. The number of elements in the cluster may vary. How can I edit the names of the images in the cluster? I tried something with references and property nodes but it doesn't work. Please, see the little example program in the attachment. Can anybody give a hint?

Thanks,

Peter

Hello Peter,

unfortunately you forgot to attatch the example. That is why I dont know exactly what you are trying to do.
But just as a hint: Did you think about creating an array of a cluster? Build a cluster containing an image and its description and than create an array of it so you can programmatically vary the number of images and edit the descriptions.

Hi Ingo,

no, I didn't forget the attachment but somehow it has gone lost. I attach it a second time.

I already considered to use an array. However, an extendable cluster would be much smarter because I could use the "Unbundle by name" function at any location in the diagram where I need a particular image out of the cluster, and I didn't have to worry about picking the right element from the array.

Any idea how to name the cluster elements programmatically? It must be feasible using references but I couldn't figure out how to do it exactly until now.
