Hi Jono,

I think that you are definitely on the right track.

In Photoshop you could create layers and colour in red each of the sections on different layers. I would set the background to transparent. Then save each layer as a GIF with transparency.Each image will be the same size, but will only have the red colouring

Then in LC your base static image of the body will remain visible. Duplicate this however many times and change the static images for each GIF section.

Then when the user clicks the red will appear over the relevant section(s).

I think that the checkboxes are good, because in the form (both on screen and printed) it is clear what parts of the body were injured. In addition you could have a small script in the checkbox that if ticked changes the caption to bold and red (complementing the body map). If you wanted a clickable body map you could change out the checkboxes for invisible buttons (with tooltips). Clciking the button would change its value from 1 to 0 and then an if statement could alternate between showing and hiding the red section.

Good luck,

Niall
