Base64Decode ( "iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCA" & color_code ; color_name & "_1px.png" ) ) Click to copy

Choose the color of a container field by changing the name of the color.
you will get a 1 pt area of color.

you also shall set the opacity = 0.1 to 1.0

choose between folowing colors:
red green blue cyan magenta yellow white black grey purple orange brown

or the german color names:
rot grün gruen blau gelb weis schwarz grau mittelgrau lila braun

In the layout mode you have to set following options for the containerfield within the inspector:
"Reduce or enlarge image to fit"
"Optimize for Images (JPEG, PNG, BMP, etc)"

Make the containerfield transparent ( no fill color ) if you want to use opacity.

Thanks, I did change the string. also I use shorter strings for the other colors now.

The minimum version of FileMaker really needs to be mentioned for these functions. I struggled to get this to work under 12 until I finally found through an online search that Base64Decode was introduced in version 13. I thought at first that it was another custom function but, of course, I couldn't find it.

In FileMaker versions less than 12 you shall use the free BaseElements plugin from goya.com to be able to do base64 encoding/decoding
