Properties
| alt |
Specifies a string that represents the alternative text associated with the inline image. |
| alt |
Specifies a string that contains the title for the inline image. |

| lock |
Specifies a value that indicates whether the inline image retains its original proportions when you resize it. |
| parent |
Gets the content control that contains the inline image. Throws an |
| width | Specifies a number that describes the width of the inline image. |
Methods

Method Details
getBase64ImageSrc()
Gets the Base64-encoded string representation of the inline image.
getBase64ImageSrc(): OfficeExtension.ClientResult<string>;Returns
OfficeExtension.ClientResult<string>
Remarks
Examples
// Link to full sample: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OfficeDev/office-js-snippets/prod/samples/word/15-images/insert-and-get-pictures.yaml
// Gets the first image in the document.
await Word.run(async (context) => {
const firstPicture = context.document.body.inlinePictures.getFirst();
firstPicture.load("width, height");
await context.sync();
console.log(`Image dimensions: ${firstPicture.width} x ${firstPicture.height}`);
// Get the image encoded as Base64.
const base64 = firstPicture.getBase64ImageSrc();
await context.sync();
console.log(base64.value);
});
insertContentControl()
Wraps the inline picture with a rich text content control.
insertContentControl(): Word.ContentControl;Returns
Remarks
load(options)
Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.
load(options?: Word.Interfaces.InlinePictureLoadOptions): Word.InlinePicture;Parameters
Provides options for which properties of the object to load.
Returns
load(propertyNames)
Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.
load(propertyNames?: string | string[]): Word.InlinePicture;Parameters
- propertyNames
-
string | string[]
A comma-delimited string or an array of strings that specify the properties to load.
Returns
load(propertyNamesAndPaths)
Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.
load(propertyNamesAndPaths?: {
select?: string;
expand?: string;
}): Word.InlinePicture;Parameters
- propertyNamesAndPaths
-
{ select?: string; expand?: string; }
propertyNamesAndPaths.select is a comma-delimited string that specifies the properties to load, and propertyNamesAndPaths.expand is a comma-delimited string that specifies the navigation properties to load.
Returns
set(properties, options)
Sets multiple properties of an object at the same time. You can pass either a plain object with the appropriate properties, or another API object of the same type.
set(properties: Interfaces.InlinePictureUpdateData, options?: OfficeExtension.UpdateOptions): void;Parameters
- properties
- Word.Interfaces.InlinePictureUpdateData
A JavaScript object with properties that are structured isomorphically to the properties of the object on which the method is called.
- options
- OfficeExtension.UpdateOptions
Provides an option to suppress errors if the properties object tries to set any read-only properties.
Returns
void
set(properties)
Sets multiple properties on the object at the same time, based on an existing loaded object.
set(properties: Word.InlinePicture): void;Parameters
- properties
- Word.InlinePicture
Returns
void
toJSON()
Overrides the JavaScript toJSON() method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify(). (JSON.stringify, in turn, calls the toJSON method of the object that is passed to it.) Whereas the original Word.InlinePicture object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as Word.Interfaces.InlinePictureData) that contains shallow copies of any loaded child properties from the original object.
toJSON(): Word.Interfaces.InlinePictureData;Returns
track()
Track the object for automatic adjustment based on surrounding changes in the document. This call is a shorthand for context.trackedObjects.add(thisObject). If you're using this object across .sync calls and outside the sequential execution of a ".run" batch, and get an "InvalidObjectPath" error when setting a property or invoking a method on the object, you need to add the object to the tracked object collection when the object was first created. If this object is part of a collection, you should also track the parent collection.
track(): Word.InlinePicture;Returns
untrack()
Release the memory associated with this object, if it has previously been tracked. This call is shorthand for context.trackedObjects.remove(thisObject). Having many tracked objects slows down the host application, so please remember to free any objects you add, once you're done using them. You'll need to call context.sync() before the memory release takes effect.
untrack(): Word.InlinePicture;Returns
