We are trying to use the ‘tiled’ option for a multi choice field to display an image (via a relation selector to a different object). At the moment rather than displaying the image it is displaying a number.
If I choose the category name as the title field it displays this as expected, but the image doesn’t work. I’ve checked all the settings but can’t see where I am going wrong.
I don’t believe the presenter supports anything other than text fields to display. I think what you are seeing is the “Image Number”. I can’t think of a workaround, other than a custom presenter, and it doesn’t strike me as being a trivial one to develop!
Hi Richard, thanks for the response. One of my colleagues thought he’d seen the tiles being used with images by another LA but maybe not!
I think it would be a useful feature request if it isn’t something that you can do. I’ve got a (clunky) workaround for now at least using links in an image.
Hi all, @james.bovington 's demo at the community event had this feature in their housing repairs app. James did point out it was custom code on a pre-code studio version of the platform. Although I remember there being a little discussion that it was possibly possible in the latest versions of Create through standard features. I guess that’s not the case, but as Kathryn says it would be a useful feature.
For a relationship selector where the image was a file property in the related object I could see this as being relatively easy to achieve with vue. Let me give it some thought.
I have developed a quick proof of concept that’s working.
You need only point the relationship presenter at a related object that contains a label and an image.
Kathryn wanted to be able to relate a second list based on your primary selections, this has been achieved by creating a second related object with a column that will accept the primary reference id. Unfortunately, at this time, a save will need to occur between primary and secondary selection as presenters currently have no way of reading each other values.
