How to design Buttons with for a Touchpanel?

Hello

I have a problem with the LabView 8.2 Touchpanel Modul. If I create a new button and want to add an image (I've tried both, .bmp and .png files) it looks great on my Windows-PC but if I transfer it to my NI TPC 2006 touchpanel the image is not displayed. It is impossible to set a color different from white, they are shown correctly on the Windows PC but they are white at the touchpanel. If I add an image without a function it works great.

I hope anyone has an idea.

Hi Rigrob!

Which touchpanel are you useing? Have I understand you right, that you are trying add the picture as you button background?

I'm using the TPC 2006 Touchpanel, a small 5,7" Touchpanel from National Instruments. I need some buttons with pictures. For example a picture with a door instead of the text "Exit". It is possible to design own buttons (with pictures) but they do not work with the touchpanel.

Hello Rigrob,
in my opinion this KnowledgeBase should be helpful:

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this issue.
Best regards,
