Hi Sam,

 

what happens when you convert those BMP files to PNG images?

Best regards,

Hi Sam,

 

one more guess: is E: a network or a local drive?

You better use local drives…

Best regards,

There is no "uploading" here, just selecting.

 

Can you explain your meaning of "didn't work"? (e.g. LabVIEW crashes immediately? Installer build fails? Build works but graphics not visible on dialog? Get a specific error? etc.)

 

What are the sizes in pixels of these images and do they correctly fit the size requirements listed in the instructions:

 

  • Welcome Graphics (578x383 BMP)
  • Banner Graphic (578x59 BMP)

 

Who made the images? Maybe they have an unusual header. (There are many bmp flavors out there!)

 Build works but graphics not visible on dialog? thats the problem and i also set the same pixel which you mentioned but still not visible.

As I said, bmp is an image file format with many flavors, and some might not be compatible. Can you attach one of your bmp files?

 

Who made them? Can you take them into a graphics program and re-save them with different bmp options (color depth, compression, etc. etc.)?

You can place the files in a zip file and upload that!
