Resources files are stored in the AVEVA E3D executable directory. Once the ResourceEditor.exe has loaded in the AVEVA E3D executable directory, locate the ResourceEditor.exe file and double-click on it. When the Resource Editor loads, most controls will be disabled, only Add New .RESOURCES File and Open a File should be enabled.

-
Click Open a File, then the Open Resource File window is displayed.

Select the required file, then click Open, so that the Resource Editor [action.resources] window is displayed.
-
From the Resource Editor [action.resources] window, edit as required. For example, add strings, icons or bitmaps images, for PML forms and menu, use bitmaps saved as PNG images.
