Hello everyone! I faced "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space" error when I try to add a background from my files. I can use predefined backgrounds but I can't use my own image. I have tried both png and jpeg files.

Perhaps the image is too large. What are the dimensions?

The 6670*3752 is the relevant part. That's huge. When loaded that image will require more than 90 megabytes of storage. Given that the screen size is surely less than that, maybe you can scale the image down?
