Examples

Example 1: Normal and animated images

Show ExampleHide Example

The image layer supports different image file types.

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "asset://dog.jpg",
  "scaleType": "scaleAspectFill"
}

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "https://samples.mobilitysuite.de/heart_tunnel.gif",
  "scaleType": "scaleAspectFill"
}

The value can also refer to a hosted image instead of using assets.

Example 2: Different scaleTypes

Show ExampleHide Example

The behavior of the same image when using different scaleTypes.

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "asset://cat.jpg",
  "scaleType": "scaleAspectFill"
}

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "asset://cat.jpg",
  "scaleType": "scaleAspectFit"
}

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "asset://cat.jpg",
  "scaleType": "scaleToFill"
}

Example 3: Internal images

Show ExampleHide Example

Internal images are provided by the operating system and therefore vary in style depending on the device used.

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "internal://profile"
}

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "internal://home",
  "tint": "#bf4797"
}

{
  "type": "image",
  "value": "internal://share",
  "tint": "#2f96b4"
}

The tint field can be used to change the color of monochrome images such as internal images.
