  2. Choose Edit Component from the context toolbar or from the Configuration section of the action bar.
  3. Expand the Abstractions portion of the panel, and select the specific abstraction in the list.
  4. Click Edit Abstraction .
  5. Click Add Thumbnail .
  6. Browse to find the image file in your file system, and click Open.
  7. Click Ok.
