> WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND? I think images in database should have links to source object, where they were inserted. E.g. I have note Cats and page Dogs. I’ve attached one picture inside Cats and two inside Dogs. In image set grid I want to see links to Cats and Dogs. HOW COULD IT BE DONE? Auto add link to source object. REAL WORLD USE CASES Image set grid view.

We have it planned, but there is no ETA for it at the moment.
