Topic: Image file won't load

I seem to have a bug with a background image on my exposition.

It was working fine a while ago, but seems to have stopped working now.

My picture tool starts loading an image, and then stops partway down, showing instead a broken image icon in the top-left of the tool.

This happens in edit mode and preview mode.

I tried it in Chrome and Firefox on OSX and both experience the same issue.

I also restarted my computer and this didn't help.

Here's a video of what's happening (the last bit is when I reloaded the whole page with cmd-R):

Interesting - I replaced the image with a much smaller image.  Then it worked.  And when I zoomed out (cmd-minus) then it switched back to my original image by itself and worked fine.

Weird!

Dear Flick,

could you mail me the image file that triggered the issue, so we can make sure there is no general issue ?

many thanks in advance!

Hi Caspar,

I can't remember if I replied to this or not, but I'm pretty sure I was just using too large of a TIFF image.  I wanted some transparency but didn't know a PNG would do the same trick in a much smaller file size.

I'm not sure i can remember now which image was causing the problem...
