Hello
I import a bmp file in my uv editor but I have no visual of my texture, if I import the same texture with a jpg file it works, blender can't show bmp file?
thanks

Because it is a weird Microsoft format better suited to bitmap images than UV maps? You can always convert it.

use a supported format and replace the file afterwards, shouldn't be a problem. They may even differ in resolution, as UV mapping is relative to texture.
