Images do not work

Open thegit456 opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

I am making a card game and I want to make the cards more efficiently by making them in a excel spreadsheet. I used the tutorial provided and in the "image" collumn I placed the image path. When I went to card maker and I entered "@[image]" nothing happened. It works with everything else but not the images... please help

Couple of questions:

  • Which version are you running?
  • What operating system are you running?
  • Is your element Type set to Graphic? By default it's generally Text.
  • If Graphic, can you enter the value from the image column instead of @[image] just to prove the pathing works?
  • Which tutorial were you following? (https://github.com/nhmkdev/cardmaker/wiki/user-basic-deck or another?)

You can use relative paths or full paths. I recommend relative but it requires laying out files/folders to match. Examples:

  • Relative path: images\biohazard.png
  • Full Path: e:\github\cardmaker\cardmaker\bin\release\sample\images\biohazard.png

Also, if you have other issues/questions I suggest joining the board game geek guild for this application: https://boardgamegeek.com/guild/2250 (other people may respond quicker than I can)
