How to save only the original image without the drawing in AppSheet?

When using AppSheet, I want to save both the image with the drawing and the original image without the drawing.

Does AppSheet have such a feature?

If possible, could you please tell me how to do it?

Any hint is fine. Thank you.

 

There are cases where the app user saves only once, and there are cases where they add drawings many times. Therefore, I think it is difficult to handle by separately saving the previous image at the time of re-saving.

It sounds that your question is a follow up question on the earlier question

You could add a column type "Image"  and titled say [Original_Drawing] . You could have editable_if of this column as ISBLANK([_THIS])

Then you could have another column type "drawing" and titled say [Editable_Drawing] with an initial value setting as [Original_Drawing]

The users could edit the column type [Editable_Drawing] as they want without disturbing the original drawing. One small issue is the user can upload a different image in the [Editable_Drawing] than the [Original_Drawing]. We could possibly avoid it with some convoluted expression if needed. 

Thank you for providing an answer to my question.
