Blob Control

A Blob Control widget can be used to:

  • Upload files to the server
  • Download files to the local computer
  • Preview files (opening them directly)

It can also populate some file metadata:

  • File Name
  • Original Path
  • File Size
  • Date Created
  • Date Last Modified
  • Author
  • Remark
  • Thumbnail

The uploader can optionally compress the files using a ZIP compression.

Example

A Blob Control that uploads/downloads images to the database. Below the blob control there is an Image Box widget which shows the thumbnail of the uploaded picture.
