In browse mode the image shows.

 

 

In Preview the image is not visible.

 

 

This was working in earlier versions of SC.....

 

Am I missing something obvious?

 

Thank you for your help.

Hi Todd,

 

This problem comes up most often with FMP11. Something about the web viewer is not being loaded by FMP when switching between modes. There are a few workarounds that should fix the problem:

 

1) Create a temporary holding field that is an unstored calculation resulting in a container field. Set the calculation equal to "SCGetContainer(SuperContianer_Files_URL)" where SuperContainer_Files_URL is the URL to the SuperContainer file you are trying to view. If a calculation field does not work, you can just use Set Field with SCGetContainer to set the temporary holding field each time Preview mode is loaded.

 

2) Use a RawData URL. Sometimes this is enough to overcome the loading issue in FMP11

 

3) Unlikely but it bears mentioning: ensure the "hide when printing" checkbox in the Inspector is unchecked for the web viewer object

 

Additionally, with which older version of SuperContainer did this problem not present itself?

Hi Joe,

 

Thanks for the suggestions.  Yes, this did work with an earlier version.

Hi Todd,

 

Did you manage to get it working? In which older version of SuperContainer did this issue not present?
