Image as a link

[A Former User]

At the moment it is only possible to add an image with the +Image button.
Unfortunately no custom changes can be made.
Is it possible to make an image as a link after/while adding?

Or make it possible to include images in the text field again...

A website without clickable images is very limited. 😔

Ok! That would be useful if you had a picture of a website and then you can click on the picture to link somewhere. Is that what you want to use it for?

[A Former User]

Yes, thats exactly what I want :)

Hey Hannes!
Now in version 1.022 when you hover over an image there's a "link" button. There you can add a link to your image!
Cheers :innocent:

Love it. Thanks!

Just wondering: Is it possible to use the same dialog as in the text frame?

Instead of

this one:

Linking to Pages and Projects would be way easier. :)

[arminunruh]

No, right now it's not possible. I need to add that feature to the "Link Image" modal one day.

[arminunruh]

I'm wondering: Did you want images to link to other projects to have some kind of "related projects image links"?

When I hover over an image I only get the class and clone buttons. How can I use an image as a link (a partner logo linking to my partner's website for example)?

[arminunruh]

hey jaxyz, the clone button should only be available for a text element. Can you please, as a test, insert an image using "+image" and then hover over it?
And, do you have a recent lay theme version like 1.8.8?

Thanks for the quick answer. Problem solved: I had the row gutter at 0 %, that is why the options available for images when rovering over them were not displayed. Instead the options of the text element above were shown.

Ok, yea maybe I should put these options into the context-menu when you right click an element
