Image

With this element, a static image of your choice can be saved on the server and displayed in the application. The element can also be used to prevent entries by bots.

The "Image" application element is part of the "Images and files" element category.

The image element can be found in the "Elements" section of the "Applications" module. A new image element can be created by dragging and dropping the element from here and positioning it on the workspace.

More information on creating elements can be found here.

The properties dialog of an image element opens automatically when a new image element is created. The properties dialog of an existing image element can be opened by double clicking on the element on the workspace, via the "Properties" context menu, or via the "Edit/Properties" main menu if the image element is selected on the workspace.

For captcha controls to display correctly on Linux, you must install the "fontconfig" package on Linux servers afterwards.
