Your project does not load (blank screen)

I changed the project and added many different components with images to it. Look, again nothing is displayed?

You give the wrong link. You need to select the project name and then copy the link.

Hi armand… partially solved.  
I must to use fixed values selecting “Absolute values” size option. If “fit content” or “fill containner” are selected, the PNG picture is not displayed, only JPG are displayed.  
Live Test has a very strange behavior also. Sometimes the picture is displayed, sometimes not. Sometimes i must to stop the live test app in “android aplication manager” and reload it again.  
But, i think we must to understand that Thunkable X is a wonderfull development platfrom and it is in development and we must to do our contribution to it.
