Displaying an image from my C: drive... »

[Mitcon]

OK, this is not really a new message, but I've tried using some of the examples in the message forums with no success. I'm trying to use the <img> HTML tag in a text field (in the Data section) with no success (I have checked the "Allow HTML" property in the Text Object Inspector list). I get a very faint broken image icon in the field.

Can you give me a Windows 10 specific example?

Location of JPG images: C:\Users\mitcon\Pictures\photoalbum\thumbnails\20060001-tn.jpg

I would like to reference them as: C:\Users\mitcon\Pictures\photoalbum\thumbnails\$D{photomaster.filename}.jpg to make the list dynamic.

It would also make sense, to me, to set the filespec up as a variable $V{filespec} for use in the <img> tag's "source=" property.

I am trying to create an index for my Photo Album with Photo info from the photomaster table and camera settings from the photodetail table. I want to display a thumbnail of the photo as the first field on each line. Everything is working except the thumbnail...

I concur with comments in the other threads. I've worked with other report writers on the HP platform and in the Oracle environment. I LOVE Lime Reports!

Great job guys (guys generically)!

Hi.
What limereport version do you use?
In version 1.5 you can use ImageItem.resourcePath property in which may contain a path for the file also you can use variables in this property

Arin:

I take it you are the author of this software? If so, kudos to you! I upgraded from v1.3.12 to v5.1.0 and did a quick test ... it worked flawlessly!

This is an AWESOME piece of software! v1.3.12 was very stable (even on the Window$ platform). I have never had it misbehave, hence no need to upgrade ... until now. Your upgrade of the Image object is great.

Thanks for your help...keep up the good work!
