Introduction to Visual Components 2.3
The Picture Manager is found in the 'Pictures' section in the upper left of the project tree.
All of the pictures in a project are shown under 'Pictures'. Each picture can be individually named. For controlling
purposes, pictures can also be selected by their picture number. In the view on the right, the number is shown
above the picture name.
All editing actions can be selected in the Picture Manager using a shortcut menu. Each picture has a few global
properties which can be configured in the shortcut menu for the picture. A project can contain a total of 65,535
pictures as long as enough memory is available. The number of picture commands, as well as a 'branch list'
(over the keys), are displayed for the pictures.
The pictures can be viewed sequentially using the "PgUp" and "PgDwn" keys.
Picture management options are explained in the following section. The following actions can be carried out in
the Picture Manager:
• Adding a New Picture
• Deleting a Picture
• Renaming a Picture
• Changing Picture Sequence
• Changing Special Picture Properties
• Defining the Start Picture
• Defining the Global Picture

A new picture can be inserted by selecting 'New' from the 'Pictures'
shortcut menu. The 'Blank Page' icon can also be selected from the

A new picture icon is inserted in the tree view. The new picture must
now be named.
The name must be different from all other names in the project or an
error message will appear.
Picture names can have up to 15 characters and may contain spaces
and other special characters.
