I was attempting to use an image as a button. Only saw a link to screen and form. I thought there were more options like buttons. I thought this was function of images and not just buttons. Please correct me if I’m wrong. If this is possible, please point me in the right direction. ---

Interesting, I could have sworn that there use to be a link to URL option. There does not appear to be one now. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/1X/52fe012bf9169603ee51c0c900cf580a166dfe64.png) ---

Exactly what I thought. Sometimes I think I make this stuff up 😂 ---

I was trying to figure this out as well. Currently have a button, labeled “OPEN”, below my images to open the url. ---

Great idea, adding to the board ---

I think the ability to open urls within a list view would be helpful. In my case, I have several links to outside PDFs. Glide is awesome in that it takes that PDF URL and creates an image preview, and because of that image preview, I am using the Columns list view. I would love to be able to just click on the item in the list and open the PDF, but currently I have to click on the item in the list, which opens the details page where I have the same image and the button to open the link. It’s a couple of extra clicks that I hope to avoid someday. It’s a dynamic list, so I can’t just set the links up in columns. I have to use rows and thus the list. ---

Has this been considered going into the new year? This would be a real PLUS!!!
