Picture not show correctly on sales invoice from latest version

i changed few location of the image file, still same result

i would like mentioned it again this problem is happened just after updating to version 18.4.31

I just updated form 18.4.24 to 18.4.32 and my invoices looks ok. I use <img src="C:\Users\Bob\CloudStation\BackUp\Manager\picture1.jpg" style="max-width:230px;" /> as a path for my pictures on W10. Maybe you can use this information to format your path.

thank you Frankie, my is Mac so the path is different

Maybe it has something to do with the ampersand or percentage (space) signs you are using in your path.

@Harry_Shen, I am no expert on this subject, so what I write is subject to correction. But I am surprised your code ever worked. I wonder if you changed something else without mentioning it, thinking it was not important.

  • My understanding is that file:///path.name code like you showed can be used as the path name only to files on the local machine. (I hope someone will correct me if I am wrong, hopefully providing a link to a reference.)
  • Manager’s documentation has only ever given examples of external URLs as path names to images. For example, when used in a custom field of Image type (or literally in this post):

<img src="upload://tM9KLmiHCPiuzFDd4Ny58CT9Nwb.png">

produces:

@Tut, @lubos, the image file can be local and URL, i did not change anything, and it has being worked fine for more than a year, the problem was happened only after i updating to version 18.4.31. so i suspect is a bug

@lubos, @Tut dear lubos, Tut, could you kindly look into this if it is a bug for Mac version?

I am sorry, but I cannot. I am a forum moderator, a user like yourself. I am not the developer. And as I said, I only know how to use images stored at an external URL.

Images from local file system won’t be supported. Mostly for security reasons.

Technically, the feature would be secure to use on desktop edition but insecure on cloud/server edition.

Keep in mind, Manager does support inline images in HTML. You can encode image into base64 and put it directly into your HTML code.

You can use this tool to generate data URL from image: https://www.base64-image.de/

i thought @Harry_Shen was using the desktop edition.

so i guess the local files should be supported.

Yes, i use the desktop edition, and the local file system worked well. the problem was happened just after updating to version 18.4.31

I have the same issue
I use manager on two computers
first one with latest version and second one with 18.2.2
the same code does not work on the latest version but it works fine on second computer with old version

I am not sure what you are asking, @ihsan. The “issue” originally addressed in this topic was that Manager will not display images from the local machine, but only from internet-accessible sources. The developer explained why this is so two years ago.

Whether something worked on a two-year old version of the program (thousands of updates ago) is irrelevant. Many aspects of the program have evolved since then. The forum only provides support for the current version (or very recent ones), because that is what active forum members are using.

I fix the issue by myself
I move the image to root directory c:\image.gif and its work fine after changing the image path to root.
thank you

window works fine from local data, but in mac still its not works. We tried best but image insertion not work in Mac from local path. pls suggest if anybody have solution.

Please do not double post questions.

Tut already gave the answer a few posts ago

Hi Ihsan,

could you kindly share your how is the code for this .
