The Image Editor allows you to create images and text to display on your EV3 Brick. You can also edit existing image files. The Image Editor can open .rgf, .jpg, .png, and .bmp files.

Select Image Editor: on the Tools menu, click Image Editor.

The editing process has five steps:

1.	Open your image
2.	Change its size and placement
3.	Adjust the contrast
4.	Edit the image, using the tool palette to the left of the editing screen.
5.	Save the image into your project.

Opening and Resizing the Image

Open your picture to begin editing.

Use the zoom buttons to adjust the size of the image. You can move the image by clicking and dragging it. The Preview window shows your image exactly as it will be on the EV3 Brick Display (178 pixels wide by 128 pixels high).

When you are happy with the size and placement of the image, click Next.

Adjusting the Contrast

Use the Threshold Slider on the left hand side to adjust the contrast of the image. Changing the contrast will affect how much detail there is in the final image.
