    Preview external background images in FrameEditor

    Hi
    I'm using the Background Images object to load in runtime some backgrounds from external files. What bothers me is that when I'm working on the game in the Frame Editor I don't see the images, which will be loaded only in runtime.
    Is there any way to preview those external background image files when I'm working in the Frame Editor, so that I can actually see the background of the frame? I don't want to embed all the backgrounds in the game file in order to see them when I work to create the other elements.
    thanks!
    David

    You could embed them in the frame until the game is done, and then remove them when you build the game.

    Yes, I thought of that, but embedding them results in a game file of 800 Mb! And with a dozen automatic backups you can figure out how big the game folder becomes!

    You can use the active/background picture object to display them.
    Working as fast as I can on Fusion 3
