Configure a placeholder image for missing images in mobile apps

You can specify an image on your instance as a placeholder for missing images. This image appears in your mobile apps when a record has an image field with an empty value, such as a user avatar or catalog item. You can select a different image to use for each table on your instance.

You configure placeholder images by creating properties on the System Properties [sys_properties] table. The property is table-specific. If you want to define placeholder images for many tables, you must create multiple properties. Multiple tables can use the same image as a placeholder.

프로시저

1. Upload an image to your instance to use as a placeholder. For details on uploading images, see Storing images in the database
2. To open the system properties list, type sys_properties.list in the Application Navigator.
   Some tables already have a placeholder image defined. You can search the system properties table for properties that start with glide.sg.image.default to see any existing properties. Creating multiple properties for the same table can cause inconsistent results.
3. Click New.
4. Use the following information to complete the fields on the system property form.

   Field	Value
   Name	Enter glide.sg.image.default.[tablename]. Replace [tablename] with the name of the table you want this property to apply to. For example to use the Catalog Item table, enter glide.sg.image.default.sc_cat_item.
   Type	Select String
   Value	Enter the name of your image. This value is the same as the Name field on the image [db_image] record.

5. Click Update.
