How to correctly import PNG images into Vijeo Designer?

Issue:

This FAQ describes the proper methods for importing PNG images into Vijeo Designer, ensuring transparency is preserved and preventing any unwanted background from being added.

Product:

Vijeo Designer v6.2, v6.3

Environment:

HMI Configuration Software in Windows

Resolution:

When you copy an image from an application like MS Paint or the Windows default photo viewer using Ctrl + C, the image is placed in the Windows clipboard as a bitmap. A bitmap does not support transparency, so when you paste it, the transparent background is lost.

To preserve transparency in Vijeo Designer, you must either:

1. Drag and drop the PNG file directly into the screen.
2. Add an image object and select the PNG file.

This ensures Vijeo Designer reads the PNG format, including its transparency information, and converts it into a format suitable for display on the panel.
