<p>The Roster Media Pane is opened from the DecoderPro button in main window or from the

Action menu, then select the Roster Media TAB.</p>
|

<p>The Roster Media Pane allows you to add a main image and an icon to the engines roster.
|
|
The main image may be used for Throttle background image if selected in the Throttle
|
|
preferences. The icon image is used in the Throttle list and various roster combo boxes.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The icon is the image that will appear in the Decoder Information part of the DecoderPro
|
|
initial screen, once you have selected a locomotive from the list. The icon will also display
|
|
in the icon column of the Locomotive Roster List.</p>
