Images

The Images section handles a series of images used in Geoconcept web. These may, for example, be pictograms or symbols to be used for the display of business site information associated to points in a map. The images may also serve to customise the design of the site.

Images are saved by default so that the functionality can be used as standard (logos, bullet points, ….). These images can be used just like any other image.

In the event of a bulk importation, the user can import a series of images using Import.

[Tip] Tip

To import a large number of images, the user should have first grouped all the files concerned in a .zip archive.

Operating principles

When the Images section is chosen, it is possible to:

  • add new images individually, or several at a time, via the "import" function,
  • modify an existing image,
  • delete an image.

If no image exists, it will only be possible to add a new image. If at least one image exists, the list of images displays and shows the image Name(s).

The Create button displays the image addition page, and proposes:

  • an option to edit the image Name, this name being a logical name used subsequently in the application to call this image (without using special characters or spaces),
  • an edit facility to modify information about the image Description,
  • an Add image option, by entering the access path, the name and file extension of the image to add, or by clicking on the Select an image file button enabling a search on the local disk or local network,

The Save button saves the creation. To cancel the creation, reselect the Images section or any other section in the administration module.
