What am I doing wrong with the Image column?

[kiwichick]

I am feeling so dumb. I hope I'm not the only one but I probably am. I love the idea of the new Image Column feature but I can't figure out how to make it work. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what it's for. I've added an extra column and set its type to Image but no image is displayed in the column. I've looked in the Help file but Image isn't included under Extra Column Types. The Beat page says "If you specify any of the image types BMP, GIF, PNG, JFIF, JPG, JPEG, JPE as column data (via right-clicking the cell), those images are displayed right in the cell." But what am I looking for in the context menu when I right-click the cell? Can someone please help me out?

Edit Data..

Paste the path to the image into the dialog then?

OK, I figured it out. What wasn't mentioned is that the row can't be selected/highlighted before right-clicking in the cell. If it is, only the standard context menu is displayed. But, I also misunderstood that it would be necessary to paste the paths/names for every image in the folder in order to get the images in the cells. I thought they would just automatically be displayed but now realise the image isn't necessarily what everyone would want displayed in that column.

Maybe you are using Full Row Select? In that case tick Configuration | Information | Tags | Also on Full Row Select.

Thanks Don, that was it.
