Update: Power BI can access the image files and accepts them if I create a measure only containing the URL of one image. Then the image appears, e.g., in a Matrix visual. It only does not appear when the link is used inside of the SVG code.
When embedding an image (that is small enough) in the SVG code, it also shows up correctly.
So the following works:
- Loading an image from a URL link into a standard visual
- Showing bitmap images as part of DAX generated SVG code, as long as the image is embedded
- Showing the SVG image including bitmap images that are loaded from URL links inside of the SVG code by using the "HTML Content" custom visual
Now what is missing is the combination:
- Loading an image from a URL link within DAX generated SVG code and showing it in Power BI standard visuals (new card visual, matrix, table)
Without further ado such images appear as broken.
