CreateImageFile

Metreos.Native.CiscoIpPhone.CreateImageFile

Summary

CreateImageFile initializes a ImageFile XML object, which one can later use to display a PNG-based image on certain Cisco IP Phones.

Usage

CreateImageFile allows the developer to establish the Title, Prompt, and image properties of the Cisco IP Phone ImageFile XML object. These parameters are stored into the ImageFile XML type. This type can later be manipulated further by using the AddSoftKeyItem action to add softkeys to the image file object.

The Image Builder API can help one create dynamic PNG images for the use with CreateImageFile.

Remarks

If the phone supports touch-screen functionality and you wish to leverage it, instead consider using the CreateGraphicFileMenu action. CretaeImageFile does not allow you to use touch-screen functionality of the phone.

This action does not communicate with a Cisco IP Phone; it only formats XML specific to the schema defined by the Cisco IP Phones that support Cisco IP Phone XML Services. Later in the script the XML object stored in a variable can be sent to the phone with either SendResponse or SendExecute.
