Virtual Spaces Enduser Documentation

Images

Slides and Branching Points contain images. For Virtual Spaces these images are separate elements called Image. There are two types of images: Local Images and Web Images. Local Images are images located on the computer where Virtual Spaces runs on. Web Images are images somewhere on the Internet. A Local Image stores the path to the image in the file system. A Web Image stores the URL of an image on the web. Each Image has a title and a description property.

Local Images

  • Image Path
    This property holds the path of the image in the file system relative to the project folder.
  • Height
    The height of the image. If this property is set to 0 a default height of 500 pixel is used.
  • Width
    The width of the image. If this property is set to 0 a default width of 300 pixel is used.
Local Images can be scaled using the height and width properties. You have to set both values otherwise the image will be rescaled to the default size of 300x500 pixel. Scaling is proportional. That means that the width-to-height ration is kept. The new height and width of a scaled image don't exceed the given values for Height and Width. Notice: The original image is not modified. The scaling process creates a new image.

Web Images

  • Url
    The URL of the image in the web.
