uploaded some images in media category, some are .jpg and some .png.

Hi @MIA27 ,

You did not post where you were displaying the image, but if in a Gallery or Form - the Image property

Switch( ThisItem.Category, "BULLDOZER", Bulldozer, "EXCAVATOR", Excavator, . . . . . )

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

As a new in this development, unable to understand the below 2 points :
a) how it got connected to images based on the criteria, I was expecting to provide code wise location to reach till the image stored location in the app.
b) how it recognize without .jpg or .png and it accepts.
c) the images can be multi used on any screen within this app

Hi @MIA27 ,

Answers below: -

a) how it got connected to images based on the criteria, I was expecting to provide code wise location to reach till the image stored location in the app.
Images stored in the internal Media storage can be referenced directly in an Image Control as simply their name.

b) how it recognize without .jpg or .png and it accepts.
The facility will not accept two images with the same name and different file types

c) the images can be multi used on any screen within this app

Correct
