Importing Image Files To Your Project
To import image files into your Project
1.
Select
Panel > Resource Manager
(or click the toolbar button) to open the Resource Manager
dialog.
2.
Open the
Images
tab.
3.
Click the
Import
button to invoke the Open dialog.
4.
Click the
Overwrite resources with duplicate names
checkbox to automatically overwrite any
existing images that have the same file name as the image selected for import. If this option is
selected, anytime an image with a duplicate file name is imported, it will replace the original image
on every button or page that referenced that file name in the Project.
5.
Locate and select the file(s) to import. TPDesign4 supports most popular image formats.
6.
Click
Open
to import the files to the Images tab.
Notes on importing image files:
When images of any supported file type (except PNG) are imported into a project, the files are
automatically converted to JPGs. For this reason, if you import (or paste) a file that has the
same name as a previously imported file (even if it has a different extension), TPDesign4
automatically adds the "copy of" prefix to the file. PNGs are not converted because they are
already sufficiently compressed.
The largest image size supported on the panels is 1280x1024. Any image files that are
imported to the project that are larger than 1280x1024 are automatically scaled down to fit this
maximum resolution. Any scaling that occurs is proportional, so that the image will not be
stretched.
Assigning Images to Slot Positions
To assign images to slot positions for use in the Project:
1.
Select
Panel > Resource Manager
(or click the toolbar button) to open the Resource Manager
dialog.
2.
Open the
Images
tab.
3.
Select one or more image files (Ctrl + click to select multiple files individually, or Shift + click to
select a range of files).
4.
Click
Assign To Slot
. This open the Slots tab.
5.
If there are no images already assigned to slots (the Slots tab is empty), click
Assign
(in the Slots
tab) to assign the file to slot 1. If you selected multiple image files, they will be assigned in the order
in which they were selected.
6.
If there are already some slot assignments present (in the Slots tab), you'll have to more careful
about how you choose to assign the files. Use the
Overwrite
and
Insert
radio buttons to select a
preference for assigning files to slot(s) with previous file assignments.
This functionality works in an identical manner for sound files.
If you import an image file that has already been imported to the Images tab, the
filename is changed to include the prefix "Copy of...". This is true even if the second
version of the image file you have imported is of a different file type with a different
extension.
