Large image in dashboard

Hello,

i am currently trying to place a large image into a dashboard, however due to the size constraints, is there any way for me to create an image that is able to scroll. The size of my image 800 x 1600.

I am creating a dashboard that is able to display the contents of the email for each campaign i create, i have linked to the pictures through a variable that has the file path for the pictures that i want to display. This is linked to each campaign that i do. Currently i'm trying to display it through a pivot table however the table only displays half of my image as the image is to long to be displayed fully. I tried using a text object but after the scaling is not working for me, it will display only half of my image.

Is there anyway to display a large image on a table or using any other objects, or is there anyway i can scroll down a picture that is displayed through a text object.

If the three display-options for pictures (maximized, streched, origin) is not suitable you could try it with Extensions like:

QlikTip #39: Displaying Html content within QlikView (Minimalistic HtmlTextBox Object Extension)

Improvements to WebPageViewer2 QlikView Extension

If this don't help then I think you will need to shrink your images to a smaller size.

maybe Bundle info load. Load your images and then use show info to display it when end user selects a value from the field. But I think the size of QVW may increase as per image size and resolution.

Thanks for the suggestion but i will be deploying this dashboard through the qlikview server, i don't think it will be suitable for the dashboard as i will be loading quite a number of images. However, i would like to understand the difference between using bundle load and calling in the image through a file path, does the latter increase the size of the qlikview file?

To embed images within the qvw per bundle load will increase the file-size. By a few small images isn't this very important but by many really large images you will have an explosion of RAM - therefore the linking to filepaths is definitely the better way.

Thanks for the help Marcus, so far using the extension is the only way for scrolling for larger images
