Instructions:

  1. Within EasyBuilder Pro, navigate to the “Project” tab and select “Picture.” This will open the Picture Manager:


    Note: The Picture Manager can also be accessed via certain object’s properties by selecting “Picture Library” in the “shape” tab.

  2. Within the “Project” tab, select “Add new picture.” Doing so will add a new multi-state image reference to your project:

Note: You can also upload or import a custom image into your multi-state image reference as demonstrated in this post.

Note: To use the image reference, select the “Shape” tab in an object’s properties menu. Then, select “Picture Library…” and choose your custom image reference:
