Image Element
Image elements allow you to include a graphic on the label. You can size and position image
elements anywhere on the label. When resizing the image with the mouse, the original aspect
ratio is maintained, meaning the height and width increase or decrease simultaneously.
However, to change that ratio, increasing the height or width separately, use the image
properties box.
(See “Image Properties” on page 58 for more information.)
Note Note
The color of the handles on the selected graphic indicate if the aspect ratio is
maintained. Green handles on the corners only, indicate you can only resize
diagonally, maintaining the height to width aspect ratio. Green handles on the entire
image indicate you can change the height or width separately. To get green handles
on the entire image, select “Allow Stretching” in the Image Properties box.
You can change the file from which the graphic is created once the graphic is instantiated. The
image data is saved in LabelMark.
Add an Image
To add an image to a label:
1.
Click the image button on the Action toolbar.
OR
Choose Insert>Label Objects>Image.
The mouse displays as a cross (

).
2.
Drag the image mouse icon to draw a frame in which the image will display.
If you click the label with the image button, rather than drawing a frame, you can still place an
image on the label. The image, however, will be the standard size set for the label. By drawing
an image frame, you can indicate how large or small you want the image to display.
3.
From the Open dialog box that displays, browse the directories to find the image you want
to use.
4.
In the list of images, click the image you want to use, then click Open.
The image fills the frame you drew.
