Linking Image to Filter

Hello! I am trying to link different images based on what is chosen in the slicer - the dates are in the slicer and I want an image of the runway configuration used for that day to show up. Basically I have a picture of the airport and have highlighted the different runway configurations. Does anyone know how I can connect those images with the slicer?

    MExtross,

    Choose “Image URL” for your image field under Modeling ribbon.


    If you store dates, image URL in a single table, just create a table visual using these fields, and you are able to use the dates slicer to filter the table visual. There is an example for your reference.


    However, if you store dates and image URL in different tables, please make sure you create relationship using appropriate field between the tables, then create table visual.

    If you still have issues about linking images to slicer, please share sample data of your table.

    Regards,
    Lydia

      THANK YOU SO MUCH.

      I have been trying to do this for so long!

       

      Side note: do you know how to make the images larger? I can't find anything under the formatting tab to increase the size?

        MExtross,

        Under Format, find Grid and then you can adjust Image Height, the max value of the Image Height is 150.
