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.

    The Media library opens.

    Information note

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

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

    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.

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

    A preview of the image is shown.

  6. Click Insert.

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.
