I'm not sure if this is available in Machine Edition, but in Site Edition I prefer is to simply drag and drop the image from symbol factory onto a display. Then you can right click the object and do a color animation based off a tags value. In Site Edition you are unable to do color animations with bitmaps. ...

Hey James, good question. VBA can certainly be tricky. I'm guessing the object name "trends" is incorrect. You can technically name an object anything, but typically its like "Trend" or "Trend1" See screenshot below Then the VBA code should use that object name and not necessarily "Trends" Also, ...
