When moving some files in the File-module with the clipboard this Error
Message is shown:

```
#1509741912: Supplied file object
type TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\ProcessedFile for must be
File or FileReference.

```

## Unable to render image tag in "tt_content:xxxx": Supplied file must be File or FileReference, TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Resource\\Collection\\LazyFileReferenceCollection given {#unable-to-render-image-tag-in-tt-content-xxxx-supplied-file-must-be-file-or-filereference-typo3-cms-core-resource-collection-lazyfilereferencecollection-given}

This message appears with content-blocks if you try display an image (or a file) directly with for example:

```
<f:image image="{data.image}" width="42" maxHeight="48" />

```

images and files are collections with content-blocks, you need to use a \<f:for> loop to display them:

```
<f:for each="{data.image}" as="image">
    <f:image image="{image}" width="42" maxHeight="48" />
</f:for>

```

or if you're sure the file exists, you can also use:

```
<f:image image="{data.image.0}" width="42" maxHeight="48" />
```
