How to get image attachments to render in pop-up window

[JayGeisen]

Does anyone know how I can get attachment images to render a preview in the popup window instead of just a hyperlink? As you can see in the picture, the default action is for a hyperlink to the attachment only.

Thanks

Would this work for you: embedly/jquery-preview · GitHub

Chris,

It looks like that would likely work, but I was hoping there was something written into the WAB already I guess. I'm looking to keep things pretty simple here. This looks more complicated than I was expecting. The thing is, the popup window will show a preview for a hyperlinked image, just not an attachment I guess. Unless I'm misunderstanding something (likely)?

Jay,

   Currently there is nothing in the code setup to allow for a preview of an attached image (like there was in Flex).

Is that for real?

The WAB doesn't have any functionality for display attachments through a popup?! That just seems absurd?!

Granted, my feelings are weighted by just completing a process where I attached over 2k images to a couple feature classes and now I am looking for how to display them...

But still.

Hi Brian,

Take a look at the following article:

Show Attachments in Web Map Popup

I haven't done much testing with this, so any feedback you have would be great.

Chris &/or Robert,

How long do you think it would take to integrate that jQuery Preview plugin, assuming one knew what he was doing?

[RobertScheitlin__GISP]

Jay,

   This looks like a fairly complicated task. Not sure that the benefit is worth the effort.

Jay,

The jQuery has the steps you need to go through, but you need to have Web App Builder Developer Edition. I agree with Robert, it could be a lot of trouble, as there is a lot of code in the Developer Edition, but if you have to do it, it is possible.

Thanks Chris. I do have the developer edition, but I agree with you both that it's probably not worth it for my purposes.
