11. Import an image into the exhibit
A. When importing an image into Pro!, you have the option of i) Copying an image from your computer's clipboard (memory), or ii) Downloading an image from a local or network drive:
i. To copy an image that already has been copied to your computer's clipboard (memory), click the Copy from the Clipboard button (highlighted in red, below). The image in memory will be copied to the Pro! system, and a small preview of it will appear in the Exhibit Management window (highlighted in green, below). In the example below, the user has copied an image of human organs.
ii. To download an image from a local or network drive, click the binoculars button (highlighted in red, below) and then browse for the image file (.bmp, .jpeg, .jpg, or .png) you wish to download. Select the image, then click the Open button (highlighted in green, below).
The image will be downloaded to the Pro! system, and a small preview of it will appear in the Exhibit Management window (highlighted in green, below). The name of the source file will appear in the Source field. In the example below, the user has downloaded a picture of human organs.
B. Note that any copied or downloaded image is imported at the same physical dimensions as the source image. In the example below, the human body image has been imported at dimensions of 358 pixels (width) x 541 pixels (height) (highlighted in red, below). To change the dimensions at which the image will display when used in an item, enter a new width for the image in the Display Size width field (highlighted in green, below), then press <TAB>. The Display Size height will be automatically calculated (constrained to the original image's proportions) and entered.
In the example below, the user entered a Display Size width of 200; after the user pressed <TAB>, Pro! entered a height of 302.
C. To preview the image at its Display Size (i.e., the size at which the image will display when used in an item), click the small preview image to open a full-sized Preview Exhibit window (shown below). Click the Close button to close the full-sized preview window.
D. At any time, you may wish to download the exhibit's image from Pro! to your local or network drive. To do this, click the Download Exhibit Content button (highlighted in red, below). This will open a Save As dialog box. Browse to the desired local or network drive, then click the Save button (highlighted in green, below) to save the file.
12. Import an audio/video clip into the exhibit
A. When importing an audio/video clip into Pro!, you have the option of i) Copying an image from your computer's clipboard (memory), or ii) Downloading an image from a local or network drive:
i. To copy an audio/video clip that already has been copied to your computer's clipboard (memory), click the Copy from the Clipboard button (highlighted in red, below). The image in memory will be copied to the Pro! system, and a small preview of it will appear in the Exhibit Management window (highlighted in green, below). In the example below, the user has copied a video of the human pancreas.
ii. To download an image from a local or network drive, click the binoculars button (highlighted in red, below) and then browse for the file (.mpeg, .mpg, .wmv, .mp4, or .avi) you wish to download. Select the image, then click the Open button (highlighted in green, below).
The audio/video clip will be downloaded to the Pro! system, and a small preview of it will appear in the Exhibit Management window (highlighted in green, below). In the example below, the user has downloaded a video clip of human pancreas.

In the example below, the pancreas video has been imported at dimensions of 480 pixels (width) x 320 pixels (height) (highlighted in red, below). To change the dimensions at which the video will display when used in an item, enter a new width for the video in the Display Size width field (highlighted in green, below), then press <TAB>. The Display Size height will be automatically calculated (constrained to the original image's proportions) and entered.
In the example below, the user entered a Display Size width of 400; after the user pressed <TAB>, Pro! entered a height of 266.
C. To preview the audio/video clip at its Display Size (i.e., the size at which the video will display when used in an item), click the small preview image to open a full-sized Preview Exhibit window (shown below).
