Image Files

Image files

To insert an image from a file, select the File Image from the Insert menu or use the Image file tool from the Tools toolbar.
The Choose... button allows the user to select the file by browsing the computer.
The Cropping... button can be used to crop away parts of the image from the top, bottom, left and right before showing it. See Image cropping for more details.

The Image properties section allows you to change the justification of the image in the box on the page. REPORTER will not change the aspect ratio of the image. By default the image will be placed centrally in the box and enlarged as much as possible to still fit in the box. The Justify buttons can be used to alter the justification in the box if necessary.

The positioning of the image on the page can be changed by using the Geometry section.

The OK button will exit this screen and create the object/save the changes made.
The Cancel button will exit this screen without creating the object/saving the changes.

Animated Image files

Similarly to Image Items, starting with version 18.0, Image File Items also support GIF animations and MP4 movies.
