Adding a Reference Image to the background of a drawing field allows for users to more accurately and thoroughly convey information back to the office.

Uploading the Image

Some forms require Reference Images to better convey information about the data that is being collected. Reference Images may also require annotations specific to the job or the data that is being collected.

Before you can set the background image you have to upload it to your account.

  1. Go to Reference Data & Images page.
  2. In the Reference Images area, select the Add Image button.RD_I_Add_Image.png
  3. Enter the name of the image.
  4. Select Choose file and select the image to upload.
  5. Upload.
