Selecting new images

Use the Image dialog to search for graphic images on your system and to add them to your project.

To select a new image:

  1. Click where you want to add the image to a topic.

  2. Click Insert Image .

  3. Click Browse . The Select Image File dialog opens.

  4. In Look in, select the path (drive/folder) for the image you want to add.

  5. In Files of type, specify the type of file format to use to narrow or expand the search. Supported file formats include .JPG, .JPEG, .GIF, and in some instances (such as for adding ActiveX control buttons), .ICO and .BMP.

  6. In File name, enter the file name you want to add to your topic (or click the file).

  7. Click Open, and then click OK.

  8. If you chose a file from a folder outside of the current project, the program prompts you to copy the file to your current project. Click OK.

Note: If you are copying .ICO and .BMP files to your project, the files need to be added to the Baggage folder before compiling the project. For details, see Adding files to the Baggage folder.
