Edit images in database not displayed

hello,
I have a binary column which contains images. The column sql type is image. The database form shows only link to to download the image and upload file. I want the image to be displayed in the same way as at the following page in the demo - http://demo.adillis.com/default.aspx?s=CategoryDemo.
Is this possible?

Re: Edit images in database not displayed

Hi Joel,

It appears that the automatic template selection has selected the FileFromDBTemplate.
The ImageFromDBTemplate template is displaying an image instead of a download link. Currently this template is automatically selected when the database column name contains either 'Picture' or 'Photo' in its name.

In your case you can select the template to be used explicitly by selecting the "ImageFromDBTemplate" template form the TemplateID property in the corresponding SmartDBControl smart-tag panel. In this case you are disabling the automatic template selection for this SmartDBControl.

You can also modify the template selection routine with your own rules on when to select ImageFromDBTemplate template. For more information see the Knowlege base article: HOWTO: Modify default template set

Hello,
The ImageFromDBTemplate setting fixed the issue. My image colums all contain the word "Image" in the column name, can you include this word also in the next release of smartforms?

Thanks,
J.

Hi Joel,

You are right, the word "Image" is also a good candidate, it will be added in the next release 1.7

If you have any other questions, we will be more than happy to help you.
Best wishes,
