These are not currently implemented in TGB 1.7.4. I believe it will be fixed in the next drop of the engine.

There's a button you press to import images (and a menu item). Along the top right of the editor there are image/imagemap/animation buttons. After importing a spritesheet, you can double-click it to set up cell count/cell sizes.

Thanks Ronny,

I noticed those buttons but it is not possible or not wishfull to add separate images?
Is it better to add multiple images that are packed together into one jpg?

My understanding now is that i must add imagemaps in order to import images.. correct?

When you're adding an image, it is added as a 1-cell image. Use as normal. If it contains sprite frames, edit the cell count.
