Multiple files including one file too big

[ghost]

Hi,

When I select multiple files including one of them with a size too big, I get an error in the debug console : "Cannot read property 'name' of undefined". Then I don't see the error message related to the size of the file because the preview zone don't appear.

This will require incorporating additional checks for parsing FileReader API exceptions. Am recording an enhancement for next release.

Okay thank you :)

I would suggest in the interim - for large file size handling - use the maxFileSize property. Read about it in the documentation. You can check an example of its usage.

I will create a new enhancement request separately for the exception handling.

Check #17. Enhancements added with upgraded release v2.1.0. You can setup maxFilesCount to control the number of files which user uploads. The performance has been enhanced for loading image files for preview.

However, note if the number of files is large - then the performance or stability would depend on how the browser caches it in the client memory (since the FileReader API uses asynchronous loading). Hence to prevent any browser generated memory leaks - its recommended to tune it using the maxFilesCount property.
