You can replace the default thumbnail of a story with another thumbnail, to make it easier to distinguish between stories in the app overview and in the story navigator. You can use one of the default images, or an image of your own.
Do the following:
- In the app overview, click Ç to view the stories.
- Do one of the following:
- If you are in grid view, ì, click the story title followed by clicking @.
- If you are in list view, î, click @.
-
Click 0 on the default thumbnail.
The Media library opens.
-
Click on a folder in the media library, for example In app or Default.
- Select the image you want to use as a thumbnail for the story and click Insert.
- Click m to stop editing.
The image you selected is now used as a thumbnail for the story, and is visible in the story navigator and in the app overview.
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.
