Image Editor

The image editor lets you view and modify the properties of an imported image or icon.
Element Description
Name By default, this is the file name of the imported image or icon without the extension. You can change this name.
Description An area for an optional description of the image or icon.
Details The format, width, and height of the imported image or icon in pixels. For icons, all sizes in the file are shown.
Actual size If you select this check box, the image or icon is shown in the Image area in the editor at 100% of its size. If you clear this check box, the image or icon is adjusted to the best fit for the available space in this area.

Actual size places the image at the top left, and scroll bars are present if the image or icon is larger than the available space. This option is useful when you need to see details of images.

Best fit centers the image or icon if it is larger than the available space, and then shrinks it to fit.

By default, this check box is cleared. Its setting (selected or cleared) is maintained during an SBM Composer session; that is, other images or icons are displayed the same way. However, when you restart SBM Composer, the check box will initially be cleared.

Image An area that displays the image or icon.
File The original location and file name of the imported image or icon.
Reimport Replaces the image or icon with a different or updated file. Click this button to locate and reimport the file.
Export Exports the image or icon. Click this button to save the image or icon to a file.
