I did a search for this earlier and this article gave a great idea:
However, I am trying to find out if there is a way to display the size of the image in the 'Manage Attachments' section of the incident form:
Does anyone know if this is possible, and where this change can be made to display the size of the file?
Cheers,
Tim
Hi Tim,
You can do this by modifying a UI Macro called "attachment_entry". I recommend first making the original UI Macro inactive by setting "active=false", then creating your own UI Macro with the same name. Add the script below to show the size in bytes (as displayed). The second last line in the script (shown in red text) is where this is added, and it simply refers to the "size_bytes" field on the sys_attachment record to display the bytes.
XML CODE BELOW IS FOR THE UI MACRO CALLED "attachment_entry":
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<j:set var="jvar_show_link" value="false" />
</j:if>
<!-- Check no_attachment attribute in order to override if necessary. -->
<g:evaluate var="jvar_no_attachment">
var atd = GlideTableDescriptor.get(sys_attachment.table_name);
atd.getED().getBooleanAttribute("no_attachment");

Hi Shalini Kapoor,
You just need to add the function in a <g:evaluate> block immediately before the final span (shown in red text) that includes the size, and then update the reference in the final span to a show the value of the new (size) variable.
Replace the original final span (shown in red text in my previous post) with the following block:
<g:evaluate var="jvar_file_size">
function getFileSize(fileSizeInBytes) {
var i = -1;
var byteUnits = [' KB', ' MB', ' GB', ' TB', 'PB', 'EB', 'ZB', 'YB'];
do {
fileSizeInBytes = fileSizeInBytes / 1000;
i++;
} while (fileSizeInBytes > 1000);
return Math.max(fileSizeInBytes, 0.1).toFixed(1) + byteUnits[i];
};
var attachment_size = getFileSize(sys_attachment.size_bytes);
</g:evaluate>
<span>${gs.getMessage('['+attachment_size+']')}</span>
For reference, I slightly modified the function that Tim linked in the above post, and inserted it into a <g:evaluate> block. This is processed by the Server before the Client browser loads the page data. The variable attachment_size is generated in this block and then replaced in the <span> so the browser simply sees the size and unit as a String value. It should look something like this:

When we click paper clip on header I Need to add a check box on manage attachment glide window respective to only one table(hr_case)
?
