Working with Graphics
- Set AutoSize to TRUE with image controls An image control is a control that binds a .jpg (or other types of graphic) to a graphic file. It is good to always set AutoSize to TRUE for image controls. This helps to avoid unintended stretching of images. You set AutoSize by using a property on the Advanced Properties dialog box. Although you always specify a size for the display of an image, it stretches to fit the specified size if AutoSize is set to TRUE.
- Image size Images that are too big to fit in an image box in the original Outlook form are forced (by shrinking) to fit into the resulting image box in the converted Web form.
- Metafile (.wmf and .emf) format images not supported If you create a custom Contact form in Microsoft Outlook, add an image by drag and drop of a picture box from the toolbox, and then select a WMF format image under Advanced Properties, the WMF picture you selected will not be displayed in the converted form.
- Tiling of background images Background images placed on a multipage control or a custom page are displayed as tiled in the converted form. Values set in Advanced Properties for PictureAlignment and PictureTiling are ignored.
- Properties of image controls For image controls the Form Converter only converts the picture bound to the image control. It does not carry over background colors and most other settable properties to the destination HTML form.
