Adding an image to a slide

To add an image to a slide you use the Media library. You can use one of the default images, or an image of your own. If you are using Qlik Sense Desktop, you can also use bundled images saved in the qvf file.

Do the following:

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

    The media library is opened.

  2. Drag Image onto the slide.

    A placeholder for the image is added.

  3. Double-click inside the image placeholder.

    A folder with images opens.If you are using Qlik Sense Desktop, you find bundled images in the media folder.

    Information note

    For Qlik Sense: If the folder is empty, or you want to add your own images, you need to use the Qlik Management Console to upload images to the folder.

    For Qlik Sense Desktop: If the folder is empty, or you want to add your own images, you find the folder at: <user>\Documents\Qlik\Sense\Content\Default. Bundled images are not stored in this folder, they are saved in the qvf file together with the rest of the contents of the app.

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

  4. Select the image that you want to add.

    A preview of the image is shown.

  5. Click Apply.

The image is added.

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