Live Icon Sizing

[AdamWhy]

Any ideas on this...


When I upload a rectangle image of the colour I wish to assign to a live scene, some display as a square and some fill the button?

Hi AdamWhy,

It seems that Daslight resizes the picture inside the button, centers it and takes the height/width ratio into account.
Try basic pictures of 101 x 46 pixels for a button 2 x 1.
I will make further tests about this as soon as possible.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

I have made some investigations...
The image is resized inside the button to keep at least a padding of 6 pixels all around and to keep the aspect ratio.
A single unit button has a size of 47 pixels (all borders included). There is a gap of 8 pixels between the buttons.
Here is a table with the sizes.

So, if you need to see a true rectangular image for a button of 2 units wide x 1 unit high, you have to use an image of 90 x 35 pixels (or larger with the same width/height ratio).

Hope this helps.
