Hi All,

I need to display an image dynamically from a network. All the clients have the permissions to access that network.  
I can’t, of course, take all the images and put them inside Ignition ( because the folder where all the images are, keeps updating ). I know I can display images from the local machine doing `file:///C:/folder/anotherFolder/image.PNG`, I tried to put the image folder address with no results.  
Any help will be greatly appreciated 😉

You should be able to use this format:  
file://server/shared/image.png
