To import a Windows
Metafile:
- In Classic view, in the iFIX WorkSpace, from the Insert menu, select Bitmap.
-Or-
In Ribbon View, on the Insert tab, in the Objects/Links group, click Objects Links, and then click Bitmap.
- In the Files of type field, select Win Metafile (*.wmf) and select the folder where the file resides.
- Click Open.
TIP: If you want to insert a Windows Metafile (WMF) as a grouped object and not as a flat Bitmap, do not import it directly. Instead, insert the WMF picture into Microsoft Excel using the Insert menu. Right-click the picture and select Edit Picture. A message box appears requesting that you convert the picture to a Microsoft drawing object. Click Yes, and then copy the converted object from Excel. In the iFIX WorkSpace, and select Paste > Paste Special. From the Paste Special dialog box, select Enhanced Metafile and click OK. The grouped object should now appear in your picture.
