    Default duplicate file @2x

    Hello!
    xara web design 17
    When I insert a jpg or png graphic file into the project, 2 files are generated in the exported index_htm_files folder.
    example: file1.jpg size 54KB and file1@2x.jpg size 257KB
    Why?
    What is the second file "@2x" for?
    Is the second file "@2x" necessary?
    Is it possible to create only one file?
    thanks for the support

    The bitmap 2X is 192dp for devices that have high resolution (retina) displays.

    You can un-check this option in Web Properties

    Just to say that the @2X version is not something that has no value. On all of the devices that I use the @2X version will be used so I get a sharper image. Without it images can look poor. I often notice when the lower-res images are used.

    The browser will download the appropriate image for the device.
