Adding Images to a Data Table

Columns in Data Tables can contain text, numbers and even images. Adding text and numbers is really easy, you simply add the relevant column from your data source.

If you want to add an image to your column you will need to make sure that you’ve added the image to the following folder Your Dashboard\Dashboard\tomcat\webapps\panMISDashboardResources\images with the .png extension.

The name of these images must match the name of the item you’re referring to in your Dashboard. For example, if you want to add an image for a Salesperson called ‘Dawn Day’, the image for Dawn must be saved in the folder mentioned above as ‘Dawn Day’.png.

You can then create a column in Dashboard Configuration>Data Connections that links to these image files. The following screenshot shows how this can be created and you can find full details on how to create a column here.

To display the image, you’ll need to select the option ‘Display column as HTML’ on the Attributes screen:
