Then select the action tool, click on the point on the map, see the image.<br><div><br><span></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">Also, we did not use QGIS for this, but built an (Open Source) web facility to do this, with a set of images at each location: <br></div><div

I'd need this feature to link builing <br>surveys to buildings. In the next step, they should also be visible via <br>qgis-web-client*.<br><br> * I hope, this is the right mailinglist for questions about the web <br> client. I'd guess it's an official project by QGIS?!<br><br>If there's no possibility to do that, I'd maybe try to implement it <br>myself. I don't know whether
it's possible for me to do this in QGIS <br>core but I guess I could work it out to put a link into a field called <br>e.g. "img" and let the web client not only show the link but the actual <br>image.<br><br>Are there any hints about the first part of my question? Maybe also <br>about the second one? If this feature is not implemented yet, any hints <br>according to where to start coding are very appreciated. :)<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Niklaas<br><br>P.S.: Because I'm working for a research project <br>(<a href="http://assip.project.tuwien.ac.at/" target="_blank">http://assip.project.tuwien.ac.at</a>) I get some money for maybe coding <br>this feature. ;-) So, the existing initiative from my side is quite <br>serious. :-)<br><br>-- <br>Niklaas Baudet von Gersdorff<br><a ymailto="mailto:niklaas@kulturflatrate.net" href="mailto:niklaas@kulturflatrate.net">niklaas@kulturflatrate.net</a><br><br><a href="http://www.kulturflatrate.net/niklaas"
