Hi All,
I am developing a form which draws information from tables putting them in neat rows. Each row has all the information necessary, ids, classification, hyperlinks to documentation etc. This is a database for connectivity in tubing ( T, Y, Cross, 90 bends, etc)
However the last column is giving me trouble in terms of how it is presented. The last column is a hidden value that denotes the architecture of the object the row is describing. This value is checked in VBA and a generic drawing of the connector shows up in the row. The form is currently formatted as continuous and while it gets all the required information across, the drawing makes it all a bit unwieldy. It loses the compactness it had before the drawings were added.
Are there any methods or tricks to say hide the drawing until the mouse hovers over a spot or other ideas that could more efficiently utilize the space? I thought of using a button at the end of each row but that would mean clicking a large amount of buttons to find what you need and that can get annoying over time.
