Graphic Images and Transparency

You can insert several types of graphic files into a CimEdit screen and change one of its colors, either by assigning another color or making it transparent.

The file types are:

  • .bmp
  • .gif
  • .jpg
  • .png
  • .tif
Note: If you use a graphic, such as a .png file that already has an Intrinsic transparency, CimEdit recognizes that transparency in addition to a color that you select in CimEdit.

Steps to work with images are as follows.

Step 1 Place a graphic (picture) object on a CimEdit screen.
Step 2 Choose to link or embed the graphic file.
Step 3 Change the color in the graphic object.
