Accessing Web Dev Mounted Resources (specifically images)

Ignition
1

I have a web dev mounted folder called Photos pointing to a Folder Path I believe is in reference to where the Gateway is located. I have uploaded a single image there called A.png.

On my image component I have the source property set to the following:

https://serverIPAddress:8043/system/webdev/Photos/A.png

but my image is not appearing in preview mode.

Am I entering the source property correctly or missing something else?

Try /system/webdev/projectName/Photos/A.png.

So this is kind of a weird situation. I am running my designer on a virtual machine but Ignition itself is running on a Linux server elsewhere...

When I set the path in the web dev mounted resource I am given a selection of options from my virtual machine (running Windows) and not the actual server (running Linux).

Is this expected behavior?

If I manually type in the Linux path in the web dev mounted resources I can use it just fine with the syntax you provided.
