# Image Manager

## Function

Allows you to attach, modify, unload, reload, detach, change the path, and modify the settings of images.

## **Procedure**

**Images** Click a top-level image in the list to modify all occurrences of the image located in the drawing. Expand a top-level image in the list, and then select the individual image to modify that occurrence only.

**Add** Click to attach the selected image to the drawing in a new location.

**Attach** Click to attach a new image to the drawing.

**Detach** Click to delete all instances of the selected image from the drawing. The external image file is not deleted.

**Unload** Click to unload the selected image so only the image frame displays to mark its location. This can be helpful if a loaded image affects system performance.

**Reload** Click to reload the selected image if it was unloaded previously or if it contains new content.

**Clip** Click to clip the selected image so only a portion of it displays and prints.

**View** Click to open the selected image for viewing in its associated viewer or editor.

**Path** Enter a different image file location, if necessary. Click [...] to browse for the file. Click Set Path to define the new path.

**Image Details** Click to view image information, including color depth and resolution, in the Image Details dialog box.

**Adjust Image** Move the slider or enter an exact number for the brightness setting, contrast setting, or fade setting. Note that fade does not make entities located under the image visible.

**Reset** Click to return to the default brightness, contrast, and fade settings.

**Scale** Enter the width (X) and height (Y) in drawing units.

**Keep Aspect Ratio** Mark if you want the width and height to change together to retain the aspect ratio of the image.

**Rotation Angle** Enter how many degrees to rotate the image to the left.

**Use Transparency** Choose whether entities located under the image are visible (for images that support alpha transparency, that is, images that have at least one color that can be viewed as a transparent color).

**Show Clipping Boundary** Choose whether to turn clipping display on or off for the image.

**Image Frames** Choose one of the following options to control whether all image frames in the drawing display and print:

- Visible and Printed
- Not Visible and Printed
- Visible but Not Printed

When image frames are not visible, images can't be selected.

**High-Quality Image Display** Mark to turn on high-quality image display, which requires more system resources. When high-quality display is turned off, fewer system resources are required.
