A problem for the picture control .

Question

Hello,
There is such a question :
When loading a picture into a picture indicator , I can pop up a dialog and have the user to assign some property values for the picture , the application then saves the values to a file . I believe I can recover graphics information through reading the file , but how to create such a mechanism which can assign or associate a data type (e.g. a Boolean value) as the user specified to a picture ? Of course , in edit status , a control can be customized and replaced by a picture sign , but I need to realize this when the application is running . Thanks .
David

Here is a VI-in-progress drawig some components of our system.  I will post shape subVI's in subsequent replies. 
This VI simply generates random numbers and colors shapes
accordingly.  Therefore, separate shapes in the same picture
indicator are individual indicators.  What I am aiming to do is
use event structures to make individual shapes in the single picture
indicator controls as well as indicators (i.e. On mouse over circle,
open "plotpressure.vi", on mouse click on diamond, send 5 volts to
channel AO 21, PXI 6528). 
I have read some threads indicating the need for tedious locating of
different regions in the picture indicator for event programming, but I
have not gotten that far yet.  I am still designing a picture
indicator with individual indicators.

The main VI is the "Multiple Shapes Example.vi"
It calls "Draw LE ESA.vi" and "(XY)r to 4s square.vi"  among others.  I will post the others subsequently.
