DOCUMENT:Q162176 23-MAY-2001 [powerpt] TITLE :Thumbnail Image Doesn't Appear on Expected Gallery Page PRODUCT :Microsoft PowerPoint for Windows PROD/VER::3.0; WINDOWS:97 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbinterop kbole kbusage ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Clip Gallery for Windows 95, version 3.0 - Microsoft PowerPoint 97 for Windows - Microsoft Publisher 97 for Windows ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When you add clips to the Clip Gallery, by choosing Import Clips on the Clip Gallery window, you can't control which page (tab) the thumbnail appears on. For example, if you are currently viewing the Clip Art page and you insert a clip for a graphic with an .bmp extension, the thumbnail appears on the Pictures page. CAUSE ===== This is by design. Clip Gallery uses the term "clip art" to refer to any vector-based graphic and places thumbnails for these files on the Clip Art page. Clip Gallery uses the term "picture" to refer to any raster-based graphics and places those thumbnails in the Picture page. MORE INFORMATION ================ Following is a list of graphic formats and whether they are vector-based or raster-based: (NOTE: this is not a complete list of graphic formats) Vector-based Graphic Formats ---------------------------- .cgm .wmf .drw groups of pictures compiled into a single .pcs file. Raster-based Graphic Formats ---------------------------- .bmp .tif .jpg .gif Additional query words: 3.00 8.00 off97 clip art clipart ====================================================================== Keywords : kbinterop kbole kbusage Technology : kbFrontPageSearch kbPowerPtSearch kbPublisherSearch kbWord95Search kbPowerPt97 kbExcel95Search kbPowerPt97Search kbClipGallerySearch kbZNotKeyword3 kbPowerPt95Search kbClipGallery300 kbHomePubSearch kbPhotoDrawSearch kbWorks400Search Version : :3.0; WINDOWS:97 Hardware : x86 Issue type : kbprb ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
