## Designer Images Element

The <designerImages> element specifies images that represent the component in the UI Designer Palette, Outline view and UI Design wizard. Only images that apply need to be defined, for example if a component appears in the Palette and not the UI Design wizard. Eclipse-supported image types consist of PNG, GIF, or BMP formats. Image files are located relative to the .component file.

The <designerImages> element can define the following attributes.

- largeIconFile — The specified image is displayed in the component Palette if the Use Large Icon option is enabled.
- layoutImageFile — This image is displayed in UI Designer's graphical layout area if the component does not provide rendering code.
- smallIconFile — The defined image is displayed in the Outline view and component Palette (when small icons are displayed).
- thumbnailFile — The defined image is displayed in the UI Design wizard for top level container type components.
