Hi everyone,
I have a list of images, and want to show it in columns (2, 3 or more.. which is displayed as same as gallery view ), been trying out but can not achieve it, only can show it row by row by <<start:>> and <<end>> expressions.
For example, I have list of {image 1, image 2, image 3, image 4}, I want to show as below when creating pdf by automation. If anyone has experience with this kind of display, please kindly advise. Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
One workaround is to use this method we discussed few years ago ๐
Please post such queries in "Q&A" section.
Could you update if those images are from the same record or multiple records of a table?
or are those images (one per record ) from a child table?
Also if possible, could you share your existing template expression?
Hi Suvrutt,
Sorry I didn't notice the Q&A box...
Those images are multiple records of a table ( each row has 1 image ).
The example data would be as below for Table named "Bag" :
ID | Image | Bag Name |
1 | Image 1 | Name 1 |
2 | Image 2 | Name 2 |
3 | Image 3 | Name 3 |
My template expression :
Image |
<<START: Bag[ID]>> <<[Image]>> <<[Bag Name]>><<END>> |
Result (not as expected)
Image |
Image 1 Name 1 |
Image 2 Name 2 |
Image 3 Name 3 |
What I'm trying to achieve is :
Image 1 Name 1 | Image 2 Name 2 | Image 3 Name 3 |
Thank you. Please try something like below. Not very elegant but will work.
The below will work for up to six images. You may want to suitably adjust /add columns /rows, expressions.
<<START: LIST(INDEX(Bag[ID],1))>> <<[Image]>> <<[Bag Name]>><<END>> |
<<START: LIST(INDEX(Bag[ID],2))>> <<[Image]>> <<[Bag Name]>><<END>> |
<<START: LIST(INDEX(Bag[ID],3))>> <<[Image]>> <<[Bag Name]>><<END>> |
<<START: LIST(INDEX(Bag[ID],4))>> <<[Image]>> <<[Bag Name]>><<END>> |
<<START: LIST(INDEX(Bag[ID],5))>> <<[Image]>> <<[Bag Name]>><<END>> |
<<START: LIST(INDEX(Bag[ID],6))>> <<[Image]>> <<[Bag Name]>><<END>> |
Hi Suvrutt,
What if I have like n images, not just 6 ?
Then I believe you should use Aleksi's nice solution as it already caters to n number of images.
Hi Suvrutt, noted and thank you for your help

Thanks Aleksi, I'm also asking another Aleksi for more details hhh, guess it's you ^^
Probably ๐
