Hi Everyone,

I would like to get the file name of the image that's loaded in an ImageView.

I have tried this but the coding is not correct.

Can you show me the correct syntax to do it?

It tells me "Types do not match"

Thanks.

B4X: 
If ImageViewQuarterPastChimes.Bitmap = "light-on-icon.png" Then
    ' Do something.
Else
    ' Do something else.
End If

You can set the image file name by:
B4X: 
ImageViewQuarterPastChimes.Bitmap =  = LoadBitmap (File.DirAssets, "light-on-icon.png")
Make sure you add the new file to the project from: Windows Menu ---> File Manager

However once the file is loaded, as Erel says there is no way to get the filename from the imageview directly unless you add something like:

B4X: 
ImageViewQuarterPastChimes.tag = "light-on-icon.png"

then later you can do

B4X: 
private filename as string = ImageViewQuarterPastChimes.tag
'or as in the example from post 1
If (ImageViewQuarterPastChimes.tag.as(string).compareto("light-on-icon.png") = 0) Then
    ' Do something.
Else
    ' Do something else.
End If
edited to use example from post 1
