file types
« on: September 23, 2019, 08:59:56 AM »
I am trying to create a new model. I drew it out on paper and scanned it into my computer. It is a pdf file. I cannot get it into the custom model as the background image. What file extension does it have to be? The pop up window says unable to find file. Does it have to be a jpeg or img. file? I'm  befuddled. Charlie J.

Should work as a JPEG or a png file.

I'm befuddled anyone would use a PDF for a picture.  We aren't going to have a PDF reader built into xLights.

I just found out that I can scan as a jpeg file and it works.
