I am trying to create a Microsoft SharePoint page which will contain an image and then there will be a lot of other clickable images on top of it. I am familiar with how to do this using HTML and CSS, but from what I can tell, SharePoint does not allow this type of image placement. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to do this?
I was originally trying to just insert images onto the page editor, and then manually try to drag one image onto another. This didn't work. But then after some experimenting I found the Insert Code Snippet tool, which I then constructed a custom HTML image of exactly what I want. Worked perfectly.

my question is really simple and I still didn't find the answer, maybe because I misspoke about it or didn't use the right keywords, anyways here is the topic:
I have an SVG script that contains some animation (like Bezier curves), I want to put it online, so I get back a link and whenever a user clicks on it, it's going to display my SVG file on the browser.
Is it possible?
I have tried to add the &z=15 and %zoom=15 to try to edit the default zoom in the embed code but it seems to not change anything. Also, I have changed up the width and height of the embed code but that didn't change the zoom just the overall dimensions. I am trying to embed a flowchart into my company's intranet SharePoint but the zoom is always set to 19% or 24% by default which makes it impossible to see anything in the diagram by default. I want it to start zoomed in at like 100% so the website/diagram is easier to use.
I have also tried to print it in a pdf, converting it to pdf, and converting it to other formats for the file viewer to give different views but it came to no avail. The closest thing was when I changed it to pdf and it gave me a better view, but I lost the interactive embed that a normal Visio embed would give.
Thank you for your help!
Puzzled with a similar problem, I've built a special Web Part for that (it provides additional options for embedding that are not part of the stock web part, such as zoom).

We are trying to incorporate an image within a link on an Acumatica report.
We are very close to getting the result we need with the 2018R2 version and have a strategy for a workaround in the 2018R1 version.
The TextBox control Is the only way we have found so far that will allow for setting a hyperlink within an invoice report definition. We are able to set a background image in the Appearance/Style/BackImage property. The only way we can get the whole image to be clickable is to have text span the whole control which is fine if we can set the text font to use a transparent color. Setting the Appearance/Style/Color seems to be the property to do this however when the report is previewed the font gets overridden and displayed as the standard Hyperlink color. The behavior when the report is rendered as a PDF via Acumatica’s email delivery system the font appears white. See Images for a visual.
Transparent Text in Report Preview
Transparent Text in Rendered PDF
There looks to be an Appearance/StyleName property for the TextBox control is there an underlying CSS file that can be further manipulated to also control the LinkText properties to display the LinkText in a transparent font? If yes is there any documentation that would help with doing this.
The 2018R1 versions and prior do not render a clickable link within a PDF if the above strategy is used. Per the ticket, I opened last week on the topic the only way to get this link is to have the whole URL on a single line.
PDFs rendered from a invoice definition hosting a hyperlink will not create a clickable link
This makes it a challenge to control the placement of the image to be centered as well as having only the space within the first line as being clickable. We have solved this in a different ERP system by having multiple links overlapping a background image also using transparent font. This required us to set the Z order so that the link controls are rendered on top of the back-ground image. The Acumatica Report Designer however appears to not have the ability to control Z order. Any attempt to place a link overtop of an image does not achieve the result we are looking for. If we can get this strategy to work we will likely also use it for the 2018R2+ versions to keep things consistent.
This screenshot depicts the strategy attempted.
Are there any other strategies to meet this requirement?
Thanks in advance.
For Version 2018 R2:
You can use the TextBox->Style->BackImage property to show the image and the NavigateUrl property to set the URL link. Html mode doesn't display back image but PDF mode will display it fine and the image link works:
For Version 2018 R1:
Unfortunately I didn't find a way to achieve this because I can't get the text to render transparent when it is located over an image.
There is z-order control (bring to front/send to back) in the report designer toolbar and right click context-menu. The problem here is that while the report designer supports overlapping control the report renderer doesn't. If controls are overlapping, when printing the report the overlapping controls won't get rendered on top of another like they are in the designer.
Having overlapping controls isn't really required here because we can display the image with the Textbox Style->BackImage property or with the Report->Style->BackImage.
It's also possible to make text font size bigger so you don't need multiple text box or set multiline=true with textwrap=false and repeat link on each line.
But the main issue remains rendering transparent text over an image. I couldn't find a way to do that. When there's an image under the text, the text is no longer transparent. That behavior happens for the textbox background image as well as the global report background image. This suggests to me that it might not be possible to put transparent text on top:
Does anyone know how to add a watermark in a Reports using source of database?
i was try using picture box to test the database source and its work fine but if i want my image to be in the background it never works.

Thank you
The current version of Report Designer does not support control overlays.
If you try to set the image behind another control you will find it highlights in red and won't show up when you use your report if both the image and the other control are visible.
This means you won't be able to setup a traditional watermark in the backround of the report, the most you could do for now is to locate the image someplace where it doesn't cross with any other control or where the other control is only visible when the image is invisible and vice versa.
Office 365 newbie. Just want to build a web page. Create a web page. Fine. Try to embed some SVG (from InkScape). Displays resulting image fine (yay!) but when I save, image disappears and says I should have used "embed command". Ok, try embed dialog. Displays resulting image fine (yay!) which then disappears when I save. I would just assume no SVG support, but it seems to be able to draw images from SVG just fine, but tosses the SVG code whenever I save. Hoping there's a checkbox somewhere that says "stop throwing away embedded SVG".
When I used Word 2010 and Inkscape, I found it useful to export the image from Inkscape as an Enhanced Metafile (EMF). I did so because the images then remained vectorized in PDFs. Not using Windows anymore, I can't speak for Word 2013, but I'd suggest you try it.
Office 365 started to support SVG format recently. Saving an Office file with SVGs in it shouldn't cause any problems anymore.
Btw: If someone needs to export a document to PDF, it is still recommended to use EMF as vector graphic format, since PDF doesn't support SVG natively.
