Adding an image to a slide

You can add an image to a story slide. You can use one of the default images, or an image of your own.

Do the following:

  1. In storytelling view, click 0 in the story tools panel.

    The Media library opens.

  2. The following formats are supported: .png, .jpg, .jpeg, and .gif.

    For Qlik Sense: You can upload images to the In app folder in the media library. You need to use the Qlik Management Console to upload images to the default folder.

    For Qlik Sense Desktop: If the default folder is empty, or you want to add your own images, you find the folder at: <user>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Content\Default. When moving an app between installations, images are bundled and saved in the qvf file together with the rest of the contents of the app. You find the bundled images in the In app folder in the media library.

  3. Click on a folder in the media library, for example In app or Default.
  4. Select the image that you want to add to the slide.

    A preview of the image is shown.

  5. Click Insert.

    Information noteAlternatively, long-touch/right-click the image file you want to add and select Insert.

The image is added and snaps to the grid. You can use the keyboard arrows to move it freely.

Information noteIf the image is larger than the width or height of a slide, it will be re-sized to fit on the slide.
