Hi.
Is it possible to create a button from an image file?
What I want to achieve is to use a simple image which, after clicking, would input a predefined numeric value into a normal text field, for further calculations.
Similar option, "button image" exists for the "submit" button, but I need a simple graphical button that inputs a value into a field and does nothing more.
Thank you in advance.

I can see there's two approaches that you can do.
Method 1: You can use our image button widgets to server us the button with graphics. You can check our available widgets here: http://widgets.jotform.com/category/select_boxes
In my case, I'll use the Image Checkboxes widget. See below that I named them "Option 1", "Option 2", "Option 3" and "Option 4".
I will then use the conditional logic to assign a number on the text box "Value" based on the selected image.
I then repeat the process on adding up the other conditions.
Here's a sample form: https://form.jotform.com/53361186378967?
Method 2: If you are familiar with Javascript, then you can get the form's full source code. Add a button and use a custom script to assign a value on an input field.
I hope that helps.

Thank you very much, the "image checkboxes" widget seems to be exactly what I need. I don't know why I missed it.
