Issue Overview:
When matrix items with similar option names share a part of their file name, it can cause incorrect images to render for specific items. This issue was observed with items where the option name, such as “LC-1.25mm,” appeared in the middle of the file name, leading to overlapping image assignments.
Example of Issue:
- File name:
Visual Fault Locators_LC-1.25mm_LC Adaptor_01.jpg - This image was rendered for both LC Adapter and VFL options due to the shared “LC-1.25mm” naming.
Resolution:
To resolve the issue, the file name format was updated to reposition the option name at the end.
Updated File Naming Convention:
- Old Format:
Visual Fault Locators_LC-1.25mm_LC Adaptor_01.jpg - New Format:
Visual Fault Locators_LC Adaptor_01_LC-1.25mm.jpg
Steps Taken:
- Identified the conflicting file names and their corresponding options.
- Renamed the files to place the option name at the end to ensure unique identification for each item.
- Validated the changes to confirm that the correct images rendered for all matrix items.
Best Practices:
- Always position option names consistently in the file name, preferably at the end.
- Use unique and descriptive file names to prevent overlaps in image rendering for matrix items.
- Regularly review image configurations and assignments, especially for matrix items with similar options.
This approach ensures accurate image rendering and prevents future conflicts.
