"Start Editor" menu commands for GT32T1
4.7.1 Bitmap
The bitmap editor serves to create and save pictures so you can paste them onto the base
screen. The bitmap editor allows you to draw pixel by pixel. In addition, you can import and
edit Windows bitmap files (file extension *.bmp), for example with company and product logos
or illustrations. However, a file so imported will be reduced to 16 colors.
You can directly paste a picture file from a different application onto a base
screen. The color reduction in this case is limited to the particular GT panel's
capacity to display colors.
Bitmaps are stored in a GTWIN bitmap library (by default: gtwin.bml). The name and the
location of the library is defined on the "Drive" tab of the GTWIN configuration dialog box (see
p. 19). The bitmaps in the library can be managed like other files (see p. 137), i.e. they can be
cut, copied, pasted, and deleted.
