Make sure all the names match in control panel and in your folders. Do a project clean and refresh and if all that don't work sync your config. file.

This will allow your images to display at the desired size. Comments Go into the advanced properties of the button menu and add the image size there.

Click on that and copy the data, without changing anything. Go to your App saved folder on your computer and go to "assets". Open "BT_config" with notepad. Delete the data in there and paste the data you copied earlier. Click save. Then do a project clean and refresh.
