Introducing: Images in sequence of operations π
One of our most requested features is finally here! As the industry moves towards more pictorial RAMS, we want to make sure you can easily and quickly add images to your task descriptions in the sequence of operations section. This can help overcome language barriers and improve correct task completion - something that's vital in health and safety!
Adding images to your sequences in a project
Whether you're making a RAMS or a CPP project, the third step is the sequence of operations.
A button "Add images" now appears next to each sub-task in a sequence.
To add an image:
Select or create a task in the sequence of operations
Click 'Add images' πΌ next to the relevant sub-task
You can either upload from your device, or drop and drag a file
Image formatting options
Choose the image size using the slider: small, medium, or large β
Add a caption β
Rotate the image β
Delete π
You can add up to 9 images or files to one sub-task.
Supporting multiple formats: PDFs included
As part of the update, we have also added the ability to attach not only photos, but also PDFs to your method statement and sequence of operations: no need to convert your PDF files to images! This lets you add company specific documents, creating an even more robust safe system of work.
