Newbie looking for help

Ive made a very simple grain storage inventory app for myself and there are 2 things I’m trying to change but are by no means deal breakers if they cant happen.

  1. Instead of typing what grain is stored in the specific bin, I would like to make it a choice menu but Im unsure how to set that up in Data. The top row in my Data has bin number, crop, fill level, moisture level, filled date, emptied date and a photo of the bin and then each in number is listed beneath that. Again Im fine to type it in but this tie’s into my next question.

  2. When on the bin information screen I want to have a cover title image on the top to show a photo of the bin and then a stock image of grain as well that matches whats selected as crop type and when i change the crop type say from corn to wheat have that photo change to wheat automatically.

Maybe this is easy or maybe Im reaching, but i just thought it would improve the look of the app. Thanks and let me know if I can provide any more info.

Create a Crops table that lists each possible crop in separate rows. Set that table as the source for a choice component.

In the same crops table, add an image column and upload an image for each crop. In the bin table, add a relation that links the selected crop to the crops table. Then add a lookup column to retrieve the image column from the relation.
