    Selecting a Single Media Item Using a Macro Property

    I would like to select a single image from within a Media node by refrencing it only with a property within a Macro.

    So the macro would have a field that would be a number, this number would correlate with the order of the media item within the parent Media node. Is this even possible, or would I have to make the property a picker with "currentMedia"?

    Not really sure I understand. If you use "currentMedia" you can use that to select media and also use that selected media item in your macro. Isn't that what you want?

    It is one way of getting the result. I was curious if it were possible to do it the other way though.

    Also, why would I get an error loading the macro with this:

    var slideFolder = Library.MediaById(Parameter.slideFolder);
var launchSlide = slideFolder.Children.Take(1);
    <li><a class="startSlide" id="openGallery" href="@launchSlide.umbracoFile" title="Slideshow"><img src="/ImageGen.ashx?image=/media/1013416/slide-controls-overlay.png&width=@width&height=@height" /><img src="/ImageGen.ashx?image=
@launchSlide.umbracoFile&width=@width&height=@height" /></a></li>
