Provide photo attachment size reduction in settings

Many mobile devices take huge photos now by default, and provide few options for reducing the size.  Please set this up in the VertiGIS Studio Go apps so they can be set systemwide for end users on their devices, whether they are on Android or iOS.

 

Our inspection pics don't need to be high-resolution such that they can be printed into a 4 foot x 6 foot poster.

 

Thanks!

  A JPG Photo Settings setting is available.

  See here how to programmatically set it.

  Thank you. Should this be set up as a workflow to run during the Application Initializing event?

  Hi Nico,

  I changed the JPG Photo Settings from ‘original’ to ‘small’ in Studio Go.

  However, this only reduced the time needed to save a form with a photo from 16 seconds to 13 seconds.

  So that's only marginal.

  Any other ideas as to reduce file size any further?

  Thanks in advance!
