Create image in another card

Hey All,
Is there a way to create an image in a card that is not the current card? Wanted to create a card that could be used to preload images into it but can't seem to figure out how to do it.

The easiest way is something like this.
Code: Select all
lock screen -- keeps the changes from showing
go card "imagesC" -- card where you want the image
create image "newImage" -- create the image (could be an import or whatever)
go card "mainC" -- go back to your start card
unlock screen

Thanks for the idea sturgis but that will not work to well for the way my application is setup. I did end up finding a way to load images into a card that is not the current card.
You need to create a group in the card you want to create the images in, then you can use the following code,
Code: Select all
create image in group "groupName" of card "cardName"

Yep that works too. Glad you found a way that will fit into your app!

Maybe an old post but just for the fun of it..
I solved this issue without using a group with an invisible dummy image ''CopyImage"
Code: Select all
copy image "CopyImage" of this card to card "Imageholder"
set the name of image "CopyImage" of card "Imageholder" to newimagename
