I’m having image quality issues with some screenshots using my snipping tool. I want to take some screen shots of some graphs and charts I have. These files are saved as PNG on my desktop. When I add them using a image component they are somewhat blurry, and the word descriptions are not even visible in some cases.

Is this an issue with glide ? I’ve tried zooming in then taking the screenshot, increasing font size etc., but none of this works.

What are some work arounds or suggestions?

TIA

Can you provide a sample URL? What aspect ratio are you using for the image component?

</div>

Can you specify what you’re using as your aspect ratio In Glide’s image component?

If you change the ratio, does it look better?

Sounds like you have a Legacy Classic App.  
Try experimenting with the different options.

How do I do that? Are you talking about template samples? I have the maker subscription, is the framework not the same for all subscriptions with the exception of integrations, data types and team members etc?

oh, I see.  
You’re using the Image in a Title component. I had assumed you were using an Image component.

Have you tried using an Image component?  
If you do that, you will see the extra configuration options that @ThinhDinh showed.

It’s a bit of a trap. Even when you search the components list for “image”, the Title is the first one that comes up. It’s very easy to just go ahead and select it without thinking…
