Network Hosted Images
When including images in educational content, many systems do not have an effective interface for managing images.
Current active stores include:
smb://engshares.uwaterloo.ca/ece106
smb://engshares.uwaterloo.ca/ece140
Getting Access
Highlight important information in a panel like this one. To edit this panel's color or style, select one of the options in the menu.
Storing Images
On Windows
Open File Explorer
Type in Windows formatted address of the shared drive. For example,
\\engshares.uwaterloo.ca\ece140
You may be prompted to enter network credentials. Enter Nexus userid and password. For example,
NEXUS\d24lau
.
On Mac
Open Finder
From the menu, select Go → Connect to Server…
Enter the SMB address of the shared drive. For example,
smb://engshares.uwaterloo.ca/ece106
Embedding Images
The path for embedding the image follows the file structure on the server.
<img src="https://www.eng.uwaterloo.ca/~ece140/Labs/500/ECE140_LAB_05_RC_CIRCUIT_1.PNG"/>
Usually it is helpful to make the image clickable so that when a user clicks on the image, it brings up a full-resolution version of the image in a separate tab.
