Image
The Image component allows users to display static or interactive images on a dashboard. Beyond simple visualization, the Image component can also be configured to trigger actions on associated components when clicked, making it a versatile tool for branding, navigation, and interactivity.
Images can be added from local files or by providing a URL, and styling options such as shadows, hover effects, and glow highlights are supported.
Best Situations to Use
Use the Image component when you want to:
Display logos, icons, or visual assets in a dashboard.
Add interactive navigation elements (e.g., image buttons linking to other views).
Create visual callouts that trigger actions in associated components.
Enrich the dashboard design with thematic images or infographics.
Not Recommended for:
Displaying large datasets or charts (use chart components instead).
Heavy image-based dashboards where performance may be impacted.
