BackGround (Experiment Files)

QuickInfo

Display an image in the background as the current file is presented.

Value

Any image file with a .bmp, .jpg, or .gif extension

Purpose

In the experiment editor, the file types that support background images are sound files, and image files. If you would like an image displayed in the background simply type in the name of the image file in this field.

Advanced Hints

You can specify the location of the background image in the same way as you do for the primary image using parameter values. This can be useful if you want to present two images (one as the main, and one as the background).

To specify the location of the background image, use the top and left parameters. For background images, place the parameters in parentheses after the file name. For example:

myimage.bmp (t50,l200) 

This will place the background image 50 pixels from the top and 200 pixel from the left. See Parameters for more details.

If you want to present images with Word or HTML documents, you can insert them directly into the documents.
