Hi everyone !!

With the image slider, I did a drag and drop of my folder of images from resources . . . but then no images appear in the moving slider. I see just empty white boxes with a question mark in each box. The number of dots below the slider do correspond to the number of images that are in the folder.

Am I required to add other components before or after adding the image slider… different unspecified components in addition to the image slider in order to make the image slider function correctly?

I dropped in a folder of 25 SVG’s . . . do I need to first convert these to PNG or JPEG instead?

I’m including a brief QuickTime movie to show the behavior.

Thanks for any helpful suggestions !!

Hi PMUK. I just followed your idea and tried png instead of svg and that seems to have solved it. I appreciate your response !!
