Hi Laura,

With the info you provided, here are the suggestions I
have for you to try:

1) Set the Filename property of the ImageDisplay to be
an [attribute] and then set that column of your List
object to be your filename for the images you want. 
If your images are large, then consider looking at the
"pre load image w/o using canvas" sample on the PST
support web site.

2) If you are just looking to display images very
quickly, then I would suggest looking at the
SpriteManager sample/download on the PST support web
site.  There is a help document off the start menu as
well as some samples that should assist in running
images very quickly from a List object.

3) You could use Canvas object in script and load the
images as well.  However, there are a lot of things to
consider besides the actual scripting of Canvas
objects that relate to the amount of video memory in
each of your subject station machines.  See the Sprite
Manager documentation (see #2 above) for info about
that.
