In the article Image management (In de Quaestor Knowledge Browser: Quaestor>Topics>Technical documentation) and QBinaries<span class=marin_input>QBinaries</span>, it is described how to create, maintain and access a collection of images or documents that are presented when a particular parameter or value is in focus in the Knowledge Browser or Workbase. In this article we will depart from this mechanisms and zoom in on the possibility to create (binary) databases and use them (by performing selections) during the modeling process.

As mentioned the @PICTURE attribute defines that relevant picture information can be presented throught a references to these images. For "OPTION4" this has been defined. For example, table 1:twind1 refers to an image "twind1" in QBinaries object  in QBinaries object in the Dataset (QBinaries is a reserved Quaestor object that can be used to store all knowledge base fixed binary data, see Image Management in Quaestor>topics>Technical documentation>).

Please note that, if another object is used as data source (as is done in Example 1) referring to images in the QBinaries will only work if the parameters used in the refered object haveValue:Label as string values and a @PICTURE attribute in there dataslot.

Similar to the procedures followed to create an image database in the Dataset.QBinaries objectQBinaries object, it is possible to create any object in the dataset containing binary data using other than the reserved QBinariesreserved QBinaries, QBinary and QBinaryID parameters.
