How do i get clipart into front panel express
« on: May 14, 2013, 01:24:47 pm »
I know a lot of you use front panel express and I'm wondering how I can import a simple clip art design into my panel. I read the help menu but I'm not really computer savy and it didn't help me. Appreciate some help in layman terms... thanks

Hey frank,
I'm not much of a Front Panel Express guy, but I can give you the first step to getting some help.....

Move this topic to the "Other Topics" board, so others will see it.....right now it's coming up on the "Cabinets-Speakers" board...

In the meantime, I'll take a look at the program and see if I can help you at all  :thumbsup:
See if anything in the support section helps:

Good luck

I don't think it can be done within FPE

I save the document at 100% as a PDF (I use a free PDF "printer" program) then import it into GIMP (or whatever graphics program you use....Paint, etc)
Now you can open new layers and add whatever graphics you want.

HTH.....Geezer
