is there a way to have images in dataset ?

You can't store an image but you could store a URL to the image you want to
use, then use that URL to embed an <img> html tag in your dataset view

Hi,

Sorry that is not currently possible although it would be a nice addition to the data sets functionality. Please can you add it as a blueprint and we will consider it for future releases of the software.

I would imagine it would be a column type of "image" that caused a selector for an image already in the library... or something like that..

Alex always gets there before me.....

The downside to that approach is that images wouldn't be cached for off-line playback, but it would indeed work!

Hi Alex,
This seems as if it could fit my requirement, but could you be more explicit pls ?
cause I don't see a column type of "URL".

A URL is just text so you would use a text field to contain a URL

Hi Alex

data type for dataser : string, number, and date.
I used string type and entered an URL of an image :"http://my_site.com/images/flag1.png"
this displays that string and not the image of the flag
Probably I did not understand how i should do it !

Yes that's right. In your dataset view you need to switch to the HTML
markup view and add an img tag to turn that URL in to an embedded image

" you need to switch to the HTML
markup view"
will you please tell me how.
sorry to any disturbance !

Sorry I've misled you.

In your dataset you need to put in the string field

<img src="http://your/image.jpg">

Ignore the other bits I mentioned. If that doesn't work then I'm afraid
it's not possible as I thought it may be

No, it doesn't work
the system ignores the string , it doesn't even save it.

In that case you'll need to log a blueprint for some feature like that to
be added in the future
