Image attachment and screenshot for annotation PDF report
There are two different ways to attach an image to an annotation in PIX4Dcloud or PIX4Dcloud Advanced.
- Image attachment: It is an image that can be manually uploaded by the user from PIX4Dcatch.
- Screenshot for annotation report: It is automatically created when an annotation is done and it will be included in the annotation PDF report available for PIX4Dcloud Advanced users.
When clicking on an annotation, the right panel will show first the image attachment and second the screenshot in the lower part of the properties.
Information: The image attachment is only available from PIX4Dcatch and it can only be attached to a marker.
Information: The screenshot for annotation report is the image that will be included together with the annotation when a PDF annotation report is generated. If an image has been attached from PIX4Dcatch, it will also be included in the annotation report.
Information: For projects created before the release of the annotation report or for projects including annotations that have not been created in PIX4Dcloud (e.g. annotations imported from an external file or annotations imported from PIX4Dsurvey), there is no screenshot attached to the annotation.
