The picture field enables you to insert pictures on the worksheet which can be resized as needed. The pictures are selected in a file selection window. Therefore you can search all pictures on your computer. |
Creating a New Picture

Use the toolbar icon pictured on the left to place a new picture on the worksheet. For more information about this topic see the chapter "Creating Items". |
Selecting the Picture
When creating a picture item via toolbar the picture may be selected via file dialog.
Worksheet Crafter supports the picture file formats BMP, JPG, JPEG, WMF, GIF, PNG, TIF and TIFF.

You may also add own images to the content search.
