Answered How should I describe a field for images in MIGX?

    In Form Tabs I described it as '{"field":"image","caption":"Image","inputTV":"image"}' and in Grid Columns I put '{"header": "Image", "sortable": "false", "dataIndex": "image", "renderer": "this.renderImage"}' (I found this variant in a lesson in the Net). On the panel to add new records I expected to see a way to choose pictures but it looks like an ordinary text field. What do I do wrong?

      {"field":"image","caption":"Image","inputTVtype":"image"},



{"header": "Image", "sortable": "false", "dataIndex": "image","renderer": "this.renderImage"}

          If you say "inputTV" then you need to have an actual TV of the name specified. Saying "inputTVtype" has MIGX use its own internal input types.
