This is useful for using backgrounds that were created in different software in your project.

Keep as Original Bitmap : This imports the image exactly as is and ensures that it cannot be modified when working on the scene.

You can choose between the following options: When importing a bitmap image, you must decide how Harmony must process it. You can then import those bitmap image files into your Harmony scene. Typically, you would need to work with bitmap images if you must create some of your scene assets, such as backgrounds or props, in a different software. Hence, they are more fit for very detailed or realistic pictures, but they cannot be scaled without losing image quality, and can not be edited as easily as vector images. In contrast, bitmap images are composed of colour information about each individual pixel composing the image. This makes them easy to edit and paint, and allows us to resize them without affecting the image quality. Vector images are primarily composed of information about the different shapes composing the images, as well as their line and fill colours. By default, Harmony works with vector images created within its own interface.
