Displaying an image for the record

 
 
The Image Window in Contact Wolf's main window (Pro version only) allows you to display an image for the contact record. Most image formats (.jpg, .bmp, .gif) are supported.
 
The Image can be any size and will be automatically resized by Contact Wolf to fit in the display window.
 
Note: The image file selected to be displayed is not saved into the Contact Wolf database to save on resources and preserve speed in the database. Only the link path to the image file is saved in the database.
 
TipTo maintain the integrity of the image file links in Contact Wolf we recommend saving all images being linked to contact records in the same folder on your hard drive. Navigate to the Contact Wolf folder under "Program Files" and create a sub folder named "Images". Keep all images to be linked to contact records in this folder. This allows you to easily transfer the Images folder and keep the links valid if you need to move Contact Wolf to a different computer.

6) Place a check mark next to the Stretch Image option if you want the Image to be stretched to use the maximum amount of display area.
 
 
7) Click OK in the Record Editing window to accept the changes.
 
 
 
 

TIP: The Image Window can be hidden to allow more space for the Comments section.
