Hi Barry,
Thank you for contacting us and I'll be happy to assist.
>> When a user clicks 'Add New' in an image field inside a CPT post, is it possible

- I'm afraid, this feature is not currently supported by Toolset, but you're welcome to submit it as a feature request at:

>> Secondly, is it possible to have 2 or three Featured images in a CPT that display
>> randomly in a gallery for example, so that each time the gallery page is displayed,
>> a different one of the 2 or 3 Featured images from each post is used, so the
>> gallery looks fresh?
- By default design, WordPress only supports a single featured image for each post, but it is possible to attach more than one image to posts.
All images which are uploaded from within page/post edit screen are automatically attached to it.
If your goal is to show a single random image from a number of selected images, you can follow these steps:
1. Using the "Add Media" button, upload all images that you'd like to attach to your page/post.

2. Create a new view and set it to show "Media" in "Content Selection" setting.

3. In the view's order settings select "Random order", post limit to "1" and a "Post Parent" filter to show posts that are related to the Post with ID set by the shortcode attribute "wpvchildof".

4. After that you'll be able to call this view in your content to show a single random image from the specified post, as needed:
[wpv-view name="slug-of-the-view" wpvchildof="[wpv-post-id]"]
Notes:
- Please replace "slug-of-the-view" with the actual slug of your view.
- [wpv-post-id] will use the ID of the current post where this shortcode is used and you can add the ID of your desired post manually too.
I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.
regards,
Waqar
