Sightly OOTB Image component doesn't show preview in the dialog

The OOTB sightly image component (libs/wcm/foundation/components/image) does not render the image preview in dialog. Instead it just shows the file name when the dialog is reopened after initital upload.

However the classic version of image component found under libs/foundation/components/image works well. We have used the Sightly-image component and would like the same functionality with it as well. Is it a known issue ? Please help to resolve if there is already a fix available.

I have tried on a fresh copy of AEM 6.0 and observed the same behaviour in geometrix site as well.

Attaching both screenshots for OOTB- classic and touch ui Image components.

Thanks in Advance

    I found the issue ... I don't know why but someone here modified the images.js script from the component in order to use "item.js" but there is no "item.js" and if I use instead "Image.js" it works ...

    Sorry

    Also I would consider to upgrade. From 6.3 onwards you can use the new core-components: GitHub - Adobe-Marketing-Cloud/aem-core-wcm-components: AEM Core WCM Components

        Hi,

        On my side it's worst, because the slightly image component along with slightly text image component don't work.

        When I try to use those components I got a exception:

        Caused by: org.apache.sling.scripting.sightly.SightlyException: javax.script.ScriptException: Failure running script /libs/wcm/foundation/components/image/image.js: Required script resource could not be located: /libs/wcm/foundation/components/utils/item.js. The caller is /libs/wcm/foundation/components/image/image.js

        And of course I don't have any item.js in /libs/wcm/foundation/components/utils/

        I don't understand why I don't have this file, on my AEM 6.2.0 install.

        Do you have it ?

        I just tested it on 6.0, 6.1 and 6.2.

        It is working on all of the instances. I just want to ask you did you made some changes to the component ? if so what are they?

        is there any error coming in the browser and AEM error.log ?

        Hi,

        As @edubey mentioned, 'image-sightly' component has the preview feature working properly on AEM 6.1 and 6.2 versions. 

        AEM 6.0 is the first version with sigthly introduced and hence may have some issues like you have mentioned. Please raise a support ticket to get a new package / hotfix

          I have used OOTB image component, not sure about its behavior in 6.0 however it works perfect in 6.1

          Try to install SP's for 6.0, you might get the fix for this. It seems to be a known issue and fix should be available easily. :)

          Thanks
