Replace existing image with another

Hi there, 

 

I've searched but can't seem to find an answer to this very simple question; 

 

Can you easily swap out an imported image in a report with another? Currently, I insert a new image and delete the old. But since I'm using the image as a button to navigate to other pages in the report, this is a tedious process. 

 

Alternatively, I tried using a blank button and insert a picture into that. This works well, as the image can easily be replaced. However, it fills the area around the image, which looks weird. 

 

This is my image:

and my try with blank button:

Hope someone can help me with this 🙂

@rebeccaETE Hmm. Definitely a slight difference there. Not sure why or how to fix.

@Greg_Deckler Hmm, allright. I think I'll go with this solution anyway and live with the lower resolution, as the proces for changing icons is so much easier with buttons than with images. 

 

Thanks again for your help with this!

@Greg_Deckler Ah, perfect! I didn't know that you could insert the image under "icon" (I had used "fill", which included that weird background). Thanks!

 

Is it me though or is the resolution of the images worse when you insert them as an icon using buttons than when you insert them as images? Is there a way to improve the resolution with buttons? Cheers!
