Displaying Domino icons in a NotesUIDocument (rather than a Notes View)

I am displaying all notes icons in a view. I then use a Dialog List field that grabs choices using a View-Dialog that correspond to a view icon. These values are then stored in a field “ViewIcon”.

For instance doc1 has a value “181” for the field “ViewIcon”, which is associated with a red flag (vwicn181.gif). Doc2 has a value of “182” which is a green flag (vwicn182.gif).

Doc3 has a field value of "183 which is a white flag (vwicn183.gif).

Doc4 has no value in the field “ViewIcon”.

I can store values in individual documents and reflect the associated icons in views. Each document can have it’s own icon association. No problem here.

Question:

How do I display these icon (that are based on a field value) when I am in NotesUIDocument?

Do I have to do some fancy-smanshy code and actual attach the icon to a RichText field or some similar idea. I would think there would be a simple way.

I have a feeling that if it was easy, priority icons would be shown in NotesUIDocuments when we are in our personal mail database. Doesn’t hurt to ask the question though.

Also, I considered the use of PassThru html and computed text to display the icons but for some reason this seemed to work only for the Web and not in NotesUIDocument.

In order for the html to render in the client set the form property ‘Render Pass-Thru HTML in Notes’

If Image Resources = Fancy Schmancy, then yes, you’ll need to get fancy. :wink:

Well I got something working anyways.
