Summer 14 Attachment Size issue on iPad?

[storres]

Is there a reason why when attaching a picture to a Work Order on an ipad that is using Summer 14, that it makes a 1 MB picture become a 8 MB picture?  If we use Spring 14  to upload the same picture on the same iPad it remains 1 MB.    Mike Monin‌‌

Hi Susan, I'm not sure why it's causing the picture file to grow in size.  Please open a ticket with ServiceMax support so the can investigate.

Thanks Mike.  Yes we opened up a case with them already on Friday.  I posted here as well to see if this was a known issue to anyone else.  We hope to hear why we having this issue soon as it is eating up space.  Some of our WOs can have up to 10 pics and at 8 MB each you can just imagine.

Rupali,

     Has there been any progress on this?

     This seems to be an issue as well with Winter 15/Winter 15 SP.  It looks like the default image file is uploaded uncompressed, in my case the image was 14MB when the image attached to a Work Order hit the server.  If e-mailed through the native iPad e-mail client, the image will be auto compressed to less than 300kb. 

Thanks,

Stephen

This will be fixed in Spring 15.
