I remember that I had already done it some time ago but I don't remember where I went to change it... Instead of PAINT I would like to open the graphics to modify with GIMP Thank you Attachment Immagine 2023-04-20 160949.png (281 Downloads)

It is a tool that exports the graphics from the TIA Portal to edit them in an external software like GIMP. I leave you the link where you can find it below: "Export Graphics Tool: Exporting graphics from WinCC (TIA Portal) to a local directory" I hope it can help you. Best regards!!

Your windows User has to be a member of the local User group "Siemens TIA Openness" then reboot and it should work. an Alternative is, you can open the graphic with MSPaint -> then in MS Paint you have a Button on the Right Top with "Work with Pain3D" If you open it this graphic will be opened with it. Here you have more options also your transparency will not be lost.... (its not perfect but better than nothing) Bye Murof
