I'm having an issue with iconIndicators being displayed next to textField labels. Honestly, I'm not sure if it is possible, but I wanted to experiment and find out the answer anyways. In the screenshot I have provided, I am trying to display a clock using the function a!iconIndicator right next to the label "Start Date/Time" that will be about the same size as the text. I understand this will not work as I have shown since this is indeed a text field I'm trying to display an image in.

Any suggestions?

@reginaldm As spotted by you, unfortunately it isn't viable as the customisation of SAIL isn't possible. To the best of my knowledge working around(for instance, surfacing an image and thereby showing the date time as hover text) to make the interface look in a best possible way as per the SAIL design is the only option.

@sikhivahans I guess I'll just do the best I can with that. Thank you again!

Try this SAIL snippet and see, if it fits your requirement. Icon image is being displayed just beneath the field.

a!imageField(
label: "Start date / time :" & now(),
images: {
a!documentImage(
document: {
a!iconIndicator(
"WAIT_CLOCK"
)
}
)
},
size: "ICON"
)

The best way to display an icon indicator next to text would be in a gridField() or gridLayout(). From there you can use a gridImageColumn() and/or imageField() to display an icon indicator as described by @amitl
