[RESOLVED] Displaying multi-page Instruction Cards


swallis7

Recommended Posts

If I create a .PNG file with Windows Paint or XnView, PinballX 4.80 seems to always display the first page of it.

If I make three .PNG files "My Table.png", "My Table 2.png", "My Table 3.png" only the first one is displayed.

If I convert them to .SWF files with SWFTools (PNG2SWF), the same thing happens.

 

I have 3 instruction cards for "Superman (Atari 1979)" and PinballX displays all 3 like it should.

[My 4K TV is used for PinballX, my 1400x1050 Monitor us used for displaying the Instruction Cards.]

 

Does PBX have resolution/color limitations for Instruction Cards?

Does PBX have trouble displaying more than one Instruction Card sometimes?

Now I feel stupid. I tried everything I could think of but I missed the obvious.

If anyone else is having trouble with these Instruction Cards....

 

It is NOT  "Table.png",  "Table 2.png",  "Table 3.png", etc   (or use .swf files)

It IS  "Table.png",  "Table 1.png",  "Table 2.png", etc   (or use .swf files)

 

....Keyboard Keys....

Press I (or press Enter & choose "Instructions" from the menu) to display the first card.

Press RightArrow & LeftArrow (default) to display the next/last card.

Press Enter or Esc to exit viewing the card (goes back to PinballX if on 1st monitor or PinballX animation if on 2nd monitor).

 

Thanks for your help!
