Hello Gliders, I have an image component as you can see in the attached. Ideally the user should be able to double click on the image to make it larger to see the content (it could open in another window, or something like that). Is this possible? Thanks!

Is that actually an image component, or a fields component?  
If it’s a fields component, then the answer is no.  
But if you use an actual image component, you can configure an Open Link action on the image, which will open the image in a new browser tab.

It was in a field. Now it is an image component (see picture). Thanks! It is larger now but it still is not clickable. How do I make it clickable to enlarge?

Look in the right hand panel, and you will see an “Actions” section. Add the action there.
