Part of my scoreboard title has an image of the teams logo.

I would like to be able to swap these via a data source.

I select data source manager from hamburger menu,

then + to add new,

do I select text as the option (Excel/CSV, Google sheets, JSON, RSS, Text, XML) then navigate to the file's location?

I tried this but nothing shows in the data source table once added. Also, is there a way to add multiple images to the data source table or will i need a new + data source per image?

Ive played around with this for hours and cant get it to work...

You can use any datasource that you prefer. But you need to give the absolute path to your image

I mostly use Google sheet where I have first row as name of the fields and second row the value.

Example.
Teamname1, Teamname1, teamlogo1, teamlogo2
Team A, Team B, c:\folder\logo1.png,c:\folder\logo2.jpg

Place a temporary placeholder image in your title and name it correctly. My example teamlogo1 and teamlogo2

Im on my phone so can't format this better but hope this gives you some idea

or just have the filename (no extention) only and set the path in the image format field

Data: teamlogo1
Format: c:\folder\{0}.png
