Image not showing in editor mode

I’m having a few issues with images not appearing in the editor, and was hoping if someone could point me in the right direction.

I have an image within a block:

        [UIHint(UIHint.MediaFile)]

        [CultureSpecific]

        [Display(Name = "Background", Description = "The background image")]

        public virtual ContentReference BackgroundImage { get; set; }

Then I reference the image in my view:

When in editor mode, the image does not show. However, when selecting “Visit on webpage” the image loads fine.

The correct URL seems to be:

/globalassets/x.jpg

But the editor mode it is:

/EPiServer/CMS/Content/globalassets/en/x.jpg,,1011?epieditmode=False

Any help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Peter.

I believe this issue was resolved in a later version of 7.5. I'm not sure which update fixed this, but I recall this issue was fixed in an update a few months back. So updating to latest should resolve this - unless, of course, you're already on latest :).

Thanks for your reply Richly.

Unfortunately, updating to the latest versions has made no difference.

You can render the image like this:

UrlResolver.Current.GetUrl(SomeContentReference, null, new VirtualPathArguments() { ContextMode = ContextMode.Default });

This will force the same behavior in edit mode as in view mode
