Picture Object

Insert a Picture on the Screen

Updated over a week ago

The Picture object lets you add an image to the screen. This image is static, and the user does not have the ability to replace the image.

Having said that, you can change the image by using the Update Controls on Screen action. If you update the picture object with the URL of an image, that image will show. 


Accessing value of a Picture object

The Picture object will hold URL of the image it is displaying. This value can be altered by using the Update Controls on Screen action, however, you will need to replace it with a valide URL that points to an image.

When an action requires you to 'Assign a value', you can use the value set in the picture object, which will be the URL of the image.
