Custom button image fails to display

Post by Yaacov »

Hi all,
I am using Flare 2017 r2 on Windows 10.

I've added a custom button to my topic toolbar, but for some reason the image I made for it will not appear in the button.
I placed the image in the skin's Style > buttonName > Background > Image filed with no luck.
What am I missing?

When I've had issues with images not appearing, its generally due to a path issue. In Firefox, you can use the Inspect Element option to see what styles are applied to the button, and try drilling down on the background-image (Ctrl+click). This will show you what path it is coded to use, and you can determine what needs to be adjusted. I usually need to add or remove a folder level ("../") to fix mine.

I figured it out. The custom button name (not the tooltip) must not include whitespace.
