I have hundreds of exhibits (all external) which work perfectly in TMG as well as in GedView on my iPad

I just scanned a photo, a 108 MB JPG, which seems perfectly normal to all Windows 7 programs...

but when I try to add the JPG to an individual nothing happens.

The bottom of the add exhibit browse window shows the file name when I select it but when I click on the file it goes back to exhibit log with no picture. If I repeat the process with any other JPG file from the same folder it adds it with no problem.

 

Very perplexing!

Very curious. I renamed the file to the exact same name (typed it in not cut and paste) and now TMG will add the file.

 

If anybody has a clue as to why this happens please let me know.

 

Thanks!

Dave,

 

I am always using drag & drop to add the exhibit. Several thousands up to now and not problems.

 

But maybe it has something to do with the size (108 MB is quite large and TMG has to read it to create the thumbnail) ?

The only thing I can think of is that the original name had some unprintable character in the name which caused a problem.
