Windows MetaFiles in Lookout 4.5.1

Is it possible in Lookout 4.5.1 to import custom wmf graphics? If so, how is it done? I have added a folder containing my graphics to the DirectSoft4\Bin\Graphics folder but can only see a couple of my custom graphics in the selection panel in the Lookout program. They are all .wmf files.

You can try to manually import the .wmf file in Image Navigator.

My version of Lookout doesn't seem to have Image Navigator. Or perhaps I don't know where to find it. Could you enlighten me further?

Thanks.

emmmmm, I believe Lookout 4.5.1 has the image navigator.
In Lookout, Insert->Graphic, in the "select graphic" dialog box, you can see the button "image navigator". Then, you can try to import the symbol, .wmf or .bmp files.
If you still cannot import some files, tell me the error message. If possible, attach that .wmf and let me try.
