In 'Prepare form' tool you can add 'image field' close 'Prepare form' and click on that field to import image.

Now in  a button as 'Mouse UP' event, select 'Run a JavaScript' and enter this script and make sure field name is same as your actual field name:

this.getField("Image1_af_image").display = this.getField("Image1_af_image").display == display.visible ? display.hidden : display.visible;

This works great. I'm a little disappointed that I need to click away first and then click again to toggle the image.

I tried one time to add a few more lines to the same javascript

this.getField("Circled.1").display = this.getField("Circled.1").display == display.visible ? display.hidden : display.visible;
this.getField("Circled.2").display = this.getField("Circled.2").display == display.visible ? display.hidden : display.visible;
this.getField("Circled.3").display = this.getField("Circled.3").display == display.visible ? display.hidden : display.visible;

And so, I click once and circled.1 displays. I click again, circled.1 disappears and Circled.2 and Circled.3 appear at the same time. Ugh...surely I can set up a single button - to "draw a circle around the day of the week"?  The form should only have one of the 7 days circled.

Thanks again.

Perhaps if you share your file and describe the workflow you wish to achieve, we can probably help.

Nessa,

Thank you for responding. I saw your request to share and with great senility shared on another post. I would love to resolve this. I only just now found this again. I'm wondering if I'm in two different support sites and that is why I am confused? Sorry. If you are okay, I would like to pursue this further. I just need to go sit at my desk and review this and upload.

The only way to hide an image with a script is if that image is the icon of a button field, or if you use a button (or any other type of field) to hide it underneath it. Either way, it will require using a script, like the one Nesa provided above.

Just to clarify, though, when the image is hidden there will be a white gap on the page. It will not cause the rest of the page's contents to "reflow" and fill that gap.
