Wasp Labeler User Manual

Note: By default the unit of measurement is inches. To change this, select Units/Ruler on the Design
tab toolbar and select a different unit of measure.


The units on the Format tab will update with the new unit of measure.


Format Tab - Picture Options are:

Picture File - If you imported a graphic, the path to it will be listed here. Click the ellipse button

(...) to open a browser window to choose a new graphic file.

Link to File - This checkbox performs different functions depending on whether you have

bound the object to an actual picture or if you are using an external data source.

Link to a Picture: If this checkbox is NOT selected, Labeler will save the picture to the .LAB file.
If this box is not selected, Labeler will save a link to the picture in the .LAB file. Saving a link
decreases the size of the .LAB file, however, if you move either the .LAB file or the picture file
to a different location, the link will be broken and the picture will not display on the label. If you
select Link to File, make sure that any moves keep the link intact.

Data Source: When the picture is linked to a column on the datasource, the 'Link to File'
checkbox represents what type of data is in the column: a path to a picture file, or actual picture
data. Select this checkbox if the linked column contains a path to picture file (ex:
D:\Pictures\mypic.jpg). Do not select this checkbox if the column is an actual picture file stored
in the database.

Size - Select an option from the drop down:


Original - This options keeps the graphic at it's original size.

Resize with Aspect Ratio - This option allows you to resize the image (by dragging the
corners) while maintaining aspect ratio.

Resize - This option allows you to resize the image (by dragging the corners) without regard to
aspect ratio.
