Hi Karsten, Another idea: use Qdabra's qRules 1.8 (free) to save the image to SharePoint and convert to a link. Switch your view to show a linked image instead of an attachment. Then you can control various things and your form size is smaller too.

There’s a philosophical reason why we do this (“loose coupling”), but easiest check is to first try to remove your constraint or your primary key from the ...

Hello, I know that (unfortunately) an attachment control in browser based forms cannot be conditionally formatted. Actually I have the requirement to disable the attachment from being removed/changed but able to be just viewed? Does anyone know a trick or a workaround to set an attachment control in "view-only" mode. I know that I can ...
