Hi Mary, 
 It should work like with any other field type as well. Simply check "disabled" under the "Field Physical"-tab when editing the form: Now, the user can see the "Select an image..." hyperlink, but cannot upload one themselves. Or was is something else you meant? Cheers,

Hi Mary, I'd recommend starting with the last section of our blog post on disabling form fields that offers some advice on disabling fields that weren't covered in that blog post. By using the browser developer tools (which we can open most easily by pressing F12 on the keyboard), we can use the inspection tools to see what HTML elements are controlling the field. Using these steps, we can see that image fields are controlled by an HTML element that has an onclick event. Because this isn't a normal HTML , we can't use the usual disabled attribute to prevent users from clicking on it. However, by following the steps in this StackOverflow post , we can effectively achieve the same thing by using pointer-events: none; in the style attribute. This will disable all mouse interaction users can have with the field. With that knowledge, I've written a small sample below that was able to disable the thumbnail field on the Part form in my local 12.0 SP3 environment. let imageFieldName = 'thumbnail'; // Get the field let imageField = getFieldByName(imageFieldName); // Get the input element of this field (in this case a with an 'onclick' event) let imageFieldInput = imageField.getElementsByClassName(imageFieldName)[0]; // Because this isn't a normal element, we can't use the 'disabled' attribute. // Instead, we can disable this by simply saying making the user unable to click on it. imageFieldInput.setAttribute("style", "pointer-events: none;"); Chris Christopher Gillis Aras Labs Software Engineer
