PowerBI unable to display image for Chiclet Slicer - analytics

So I've started using Microsoft's latest BI tool, PowerBI. I am very interested using the chiclet slicer custom visualisation module and include logos on the dashboard so that relevant data is filtered when clicked on a particular company logo.
I have added an ImgURL field in the Region table as and the URL of the website maps to the Region values. However for some reason I am not able to display the image instead the URL is displayed. See screenshots below. How can I make it to display the image instead of the URL. What am I doing wrong? Pls see screenshots below.
If I click on London, the corresponding rows are filtered i.e. clipartbest.com website is only displayed (as expected) as below, however it doesn't bring through the image:
I've tried this with different URL links and can't seem to get it work. Any ideas? Help would be appreciated.

This is solved now. You need to drag a field in the 'Values' section otherwise the images won't be displayed.

How can I store images so that the URL for the image takes me only to the image and not the webpage?

I am connecting Active Directory to a platform my company uses. In order to ensure that user's have a profile picture, I will add the URL of the photo to an attribute and connect it that way. However, the URL for the image must take me directly to the image. So far, I have been able to store images on different options but for each one, when I select the URL, it takes me to the webpage that disples other items than just the image (e.g. - https://ibb.co/J2cFfsx ). How can I store photos so that the URL takes me directly to JUST the image ONLY?
right click on the image and click view image. once you have done this you should get something that looks like below. In the URL there should be a new link, if you use that one it should always take you to the image aslong as it exits.
Equally you can right click on the image and select "copy image location" and that will give you the new link. I personally perfer the other method as it gives a proper preview of the image at its full size.
new image view
To link your image to the document go and search for image on google. right click on image -> Create QR code for this image after showing the QR code. Beneath QR code there is a link copy that and paste it in your document where you want. Now just to be sure click on the link and it will show the image only. Try it!!

HTML Page from selected row in Spotfire

I have come across a requirement that is already available in the current tool and they expect it to be implemented in Spotfire as well.
Requirement: Once data is loaded in Spotfire and they click on a row, there is a button "View in Web" that will render that selected row in a beautiful static HTML page in a new window.
My Logic so far: I'll store the column values in variables using ironpyton as explained in https://techgoje.wordpress.com/2014/12/02/spotfire-ironpython-accessing-column-values-in-script-context/ and then i'll render those values in HTML page
Any suggestion or help is greatly appreciated.
I have never tried to open a popup or new window in Spotfire. my guess is that you could do it in the Web Player, but it may not work in the thick client.
I've created an example DXP that shows how IronPython and Javascript can interact to render HTML content in a textarea. this may be a good solution for you.
(NOTE: you will need to trust all of the IP and JS scripts in this document!)

Best Way to Create Image Gallery

Please provide any examples or links which clearly explaining to create simple image gallery in Drupal 7.
Actually the image gallery should be in Thumb Nail Image with 4 images per row.
It should be categorized with simple menu.
If there is sub category, then there should be drop down menus.
Finally the gallery should be with pagination links.
I've tried with taxamony, but it not clear display as expected in front end.
Please provide the better way either thru code or any modules available.
There are different ways to do an image gallery. If something like galleria is what you are looking for you can do it very easily just by using an image field and drupal galleria module.
But in your case, you will have to use views. In that pull out the images you want, choose the
display as grid. Set the no. of columns to 4. Link to the original image. Then you can use the
Lightbox module to open them in a lightbox, if you want one.
For pagination you can use the default views pagination settings.

ExtJS image not getting displayed properly

Is there some way to find out the list of images associated with an example? When i double click some example then the images are coming perfect but while implementing it in my project, I am having lots of image problems. e.g. In the Grid cell-editing example demo, when I implement it in my project then the Sort Ascending, Sort Descending and Columns images are not getting displayed. I tried running this in Chrome and FIrefox but not getting any missing image error/exception/warning as well.
Please let me know about this.
Regards,
If you just need a couple of images, you can right-click the images in the working example and click "Inspect Element". For the grid cell-editing demo, the images are '/resources/themes/images/default/grid/sort_asc.gif', '/resources/themes/images/default/grid/sort_desc.gif', and '/resources/themes/images/default/grid/grid3-hd-btn.gif'. They are referenced in the ext-all.css file, so if the images are missing in your version and you aren't seeing any console errors, your version of the css file might not reference those background images.

Help for using (exernal images) from the website with SSRS

I have a small web site where i maintain users data. I maintain the users data in table and store there images like /images/users/user_id.jpeg on the server.
I am using the ReportViewer control in the asp.net page to show the reports from SSRS in the web application.
Now user want reports where they can see the users image in the report so that they can export it as pdf and get it printed.
In report i tried html image tag with full and relative url with option to render HTML however its not working. Also i tried the image control in the toolbox with external url and that too appears to be now working.
Can someone please help me get around this problem or guide me to some helpful links.
Thanks all,
It will be a lot easier to set up the report so that your users can see the image, if you can see the image in preview in Report Designer.
Make sure you have a working URL that takes you to one of your images. Test it, by pasting the URL into the address bar of your browser and ensure that the image is displayed in the browser.
Delete the existing image from your report. Insert a new image into the report object (normally a list or table) you are using to display your table. (This should be where the old image was.)
Specify Web as the image source, and enter your working URL as the URL of the image.
Preview the report in the report designer. You should be able to see the image (with the hardcoded URL) displayed correctly in the report.
Assuming all images are stored in the same directory on your server, switch to the layout tab of your report designer and click on the image object. In the Properties window, the value attribute should be the harcoded URL.
Click on the <Expression...> option from the dropdown menu for the Value attribute. Edit the expression so that it says ="your URL, without the filename" & Fields!your image filename data field name.Value
Preview the report in the report designer. You should be able to see the appropriate image for your data displayed correctly in the report.
If everything has gone correctly up to this point, deploy the report and try viewing it in the Report Manager. You should be able to see the appropriate image for your data displayed correctly in the report.
At this point, your users should now be able to see the report images.
I tried everything!!! It wasn't working in BIDS, Web Browser nor a Winform Report Viewer control.
I ended up hard-coding the image and it still didn't work:
="http://MyServer/Reports_SQL2008/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2fBRAND_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"
I am pretty sure the problem was something to do with Active Directory Group Policy propagation. I suggest to leave it overnight if you have the same problem and have tried everything you can think of:
Setup Unattended Execution Account in SSRS Config with a service account who's password wont expire:
Permissions (both on image and also at Site Settings):
Can navigate to the image successfully, but it still doesn't show in the report.
Have the SSRS Image Properties set correctly, with the equal sign and url enclosed in double quotes, ie: ="url"
Even clear your browsers cache and tried different browsers, etc, etc
Anyway next morning I tried and the hardcoded path works and now this dynamic URL works too:
http://MyServer/Reports_SQL2008/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2f" & First(Fields!Brand.Value, "ClientAndBrandByAccount") & "_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"
The XML in the RDL file is HTML encoded and looks like this:
<Image Name="Logo">
<Source>External</Source>
<Value>="http://MyServer/Reports_SQL2008/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2f" & First(Fields!Brand.Value, "ClientAndBrandByAccount") & "_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"</Value>
I tried to make the Server URL dynamic as Alex Z shows, though I had to use this Replace code:
=Replace(Globals!ReportServerUrl,"/ReportServer_","/Reports_") & "/Pages/Resource.aspx?ItemPath=%2fProjectReporting%2f" & First(Fields!Brand.Value, "ClientAndBrandByAccount") & "_Logo.png&RetrieveResource=True"
Create a relative url using the expression and global variable Globals!ReportServerUrl
= Globals!ReportServerUrl + "your path to image"
