Create an image

Use the image tool to place bitmap, JPEG, PNG, or SVG images on a display. For monochrome images, you can set up the image to blink at runtime.
  • For monochrome images, the background color becomes transparent when you change the Image back style to Transparent.
  • For color images, any area of the image that is black becomes transparent when you change the Image back style to Transparent.
Before you can place an image on a display, you must import the image into the application.
To place an image in a display:
  1. In the
    Graphics
     editor, select
    Objects
    >
    Drawing
    >
    Image,
     or click the image icon in the toolbox.
  2. Drag the mouse to position and draw a rectangle the general size and location you intend the display to be.
  3. Double-click the object to open the
    Image Properties
     dialog box.
  4. In the property tabs, specify the image to use and how you intend the image to look.
