How does the Web Image widget work?

You link to an image hosted online and NoviSign displays it on screen. If the source image is updated at the same URL, your screen shows the new version.

Why use a web image?

It’s useful for images that change – like a live status graphic, generated chart or frequently updated photo – without re-uploading.

Where is it useful?

Live status displays, auto-generated graphics and externally maintained images are good fits.
