Problem importing silkscreen bitmap
Posted: Wed Jun 04, 2014 5:09 am
I'm a relatively new user of Protocase Designer and have run into a simple problem: I cannot successfully import bitmaps for silkscreen. I enter face edit mode, switch the default draw type to silkscreen, click the bitmap mode button, and click on my panel face. File chooser appears, I select an image file which is accepted, but then the "busy" icon appears forever and no image is placed. Eventually I can regain control by pressing "ESC". The image file I wish to place is a PNG and contains only two colors.
I have tried the following, all with same exact result:
- above procedure on a completely fresh template design
- PNG, JPG, BMP 24-bit, BMP 8-bit, and BMP monochrome image files
- On Windows 7 using Protocase Designer 4.4.5
- On Mac 10.8 using Protocase Designer 4.4.6
This feels like it must be user error. Any hints?
(I have a debug.log available)
