SeedCode Support Forum

I created a new .png graphic and replaced the Seedcode IntCurveGlobLogo with it. I can exit my local program and come back in and the new graphic displays correctly.

However, when I do the same thing on a Network (Server 9, FM9Pro, logged in as Admin), the new graphic shows but reverts back to the original Seedcode logo if I log out and log back in again. The only difference I can see is that "sharing" is turned on for the network version.

Any thoughts on how I can get the network Seedcode to keep the new graphic after exiting? Thanks!

Hey there. What you're seeing is the normal behavior of global fields: once the file is served, globals will only maintain their edited state for the duration of the user's session, then they revert to the state they had when the file was served. This can be very handy for things like defaults and settings, but can be a pain, as you've seen, for logos.

You'll want to take the file off the server, change your logo, then load the file back up.

Hope that helps,

John

Thanks for the quick reply John. Not sure that I understand what you mean by "take the file off the server". Do you mean take the SeedcodeComplete file off the server, change the logo and then put it back on the server? Or take the graphic off? Thanks in advance.

Yes: close the file on the server, open it locally it a copy of FileMaker Pro, change the logo, then close the file and upload it to the server again, opening it there for guests to use.

Best,

John
