Hi @Rmcrabb ,
my understanding for your quesiton - it consist of 2 different points.
1.) the first one is the quesiton how to display pdf files in AR - here in studio project. For this I want to refer to the post
Displaying / Accessing Files (e.g PDF) in AR Application
2.) How to get files from repository- I think it is possible and you can get a image file form repository via the LoadImage service.
Now tested and it was working. So have an project with a 2d image widget with the name/ id "image-1".
Also I have a Thingworx repository thing with the name "My_image-File":
In the external data added the TWX repository and the service LoadImage.
So the following code:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$scope.GetImageFromTwxRepository = function(path) {
$scope.$applyAsync(function() {
$rootScope.$broadcast('app.mdl.My_images-File.svc.LoadImage',
{"path":path}
);} ,500 );
console.log("after calling GetImageFromTwx");
};
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$scope.$on('$ionicView.afterEnter', function() {
//register the complet svc for evaluating of the data
$scope.$root.$on('LoadImage-complete', function(event, args) {
console.log("LoadImage-complete event");
var ret_str='data:image/gif;base64,'+args.data[0].Content;
$scope.view.wdg['image-1']['imgsrc']=ret_str;
});
$timeout( function () {$scope.GetImageFromTwxRepository('/uhr.gif');},2500);
//start the method with 2,5 sec delay
});
This will display the image form the repository in to the image widget:
