UWP Package manifest StoreLogo asset error

Question

I generated all the required assets for the package manifest but VS gives error on the file /StoreLogo.scale-100.png.

If I hover the red cross:

A mixture of images with and without the "scale" or "targetsize" qualifiers exists in this project for the logical name "Assets\StoreLogo.png". When a mixture exists, files without the qualifier will be ignored.

So I create a copy of the scale-100 file and simply name it to StoreLogo.png so the error that aborted the compilation is gone (and it compiles successfully) but but I still see the visual error in the package editor as you can see from the image.

Does anyone experienced the same? Is there a fix?

Answer 1

The issue lies in your solution explorer. There would be two images of the same type StoreLogo.png and StoreLogo.Scale100.png. This generally causes the issue. There are different trouble shooting steps:

• Open solution explorer and delete all assets named storeLogo with all scales. And then re-add them using your visual assets tab from a different directory.
• Click on the cross where it's taking the path Assets/StoreLogo.png and once done, follow the above method to add store logos afresh.
• If all doesn't work, then this is what you do, a little time consuming but it'll fix it. You make a copy of all your package assets (all the logos basically from top to down). And remove them from your solution and delete it from the path as well. No create a new solution and use it's default images to replace the one's in your project. Now that you have your package assets reset-ed, now you again start of with the process of adding your assets just make sure you don't make any mistakes while adding (you'll know if it's a mistake if vs prompts you or shows a red cross).

That being said, the 3rd option is always the last one. Most probably either 1 or 2 would get you fixed.
