Grouping suppresses images during command line export
This one had me scratching my head this morning: If you import an image and then group it with another component, the image won't be included in any PNGs generated from the command line.
Specifically, I brought in a 16x16 PNG icon and grouped it with a label component, to create an icon-and-text-label element that needed to appear repeatedly, across several mockups. When the exports were generated from the command line, all the labels were showing in the PNGs, but the imported icon images were missing. When I tried un-grouping one of the image-label hybrids, sure enough, that image reappeared when the PNGs were regenerated.
Bear in mind, everything looks fine within Mockups when the BMML file is loaded -- this problem is confined to command line exports.

Inappropriate?Hey Michael, it was deeper than I thought, but I fixed it all up now.
I’m feeling better about the code

Inappropriate?Hmm ... this is weird: I just installed NEXT.154, created two simple image+label groups, and command-line generated the PNG. The grouped imported images are still missing in the output.
Should e-mail the BMML? -
yes please...grrr. Thanks Mike, we'll get to the bottom of it, this stuff is tricky (recursive groups etc). -
Inappropriate?Nailed it in the latest update. Thanks for your persistence ...
I’m back up to speed.
