About This Feature

Overview

The Multidimensional Image and Attachment Field is a built-in field type in WPS Office for Mac multidimensional tables. It is used to store images, documents, audio, video, and other files inside a single record. It supports creating a dedicated field, uploading local files, uploading cloud files, and showing image content more visually with gallery view.

Core capabilities include:

  • Create an image and attachment field: add a dedicated file column to a table.
  • Upload local files: add files from your Mac directly to a target cell.
  • Upload cloud files: choose files from cloud storage and write them into a record.
  • Reuse attachment content across tables: combine lookup or related-table workflows to reuse existing files.

This feature fits asset tracking, approval material collection, project archiving, and image-based record display in WPS Office.

Capability SummaryWPS multidimensional tables let you create an image and attachment field, upload local or cloud files in record cells, and use the field for image display and file archiving.Microsoft Lists lets users attach one or more files to a list item for additional details, but the attachment is tied to the item form.Google Sheets supports file smart chips and file links for referencing cloud files, but not a native attachment field.Notion databases provide a File property that supports uploads, pasted links, drag-and-drop, and multiple files.Adobe Acrobat lets users attach files to PDF documents, which is document-based rather than a table-field workflow.
WPS AdvantagesAdvantage: manage attachments directly in structured table records; Distinct: supports both local file upload and cloud file upload in the same field workflow.Compared with WPS: supports list item attachments, but Microsoft notes that files cannot be attached in Edit in grid view.Compared with WPS: focuses more on file links and smart chips, without a native record-level attachment column.Compared with WPS: also supports multiple files, but the workflow is centered on database properties rather than a multidimensional table field.Compared with WPS: better suited to attaching files to PDFs, not to record-level attachment fields in a table.

Overall Conclusion
If your main workflow is collecting and managing images, documents, and other files inside structured table records, WPS is a closer fit for record-level collaboration. Other products also support file attachment or file reference workflows, but their focus differs in field-based entry and table-style presentation.
