Annotate raster images in Drafting

[Befuddled]

Hi all,

I am creating a basic schematic drawing, in which i will use photographs of an installation as a record of the activity.

I have inserted the pictures into a NX drawing and wish to add simple annotation, notes and labels with leaders to key components in the pictures.

All this is fairly basic stuff and works fine.... but with 1 minor issue (I hope I am missing a setting)

The picture always seem to be on top of the NX annotation. Is there a setting or option somewhere that I can use to push the picture to the back (like PowerPoint?)

Kind regards, & thanks in advance,

Befuddled.....

No. There is no " Move to bottom" option sadly.
I have reported this issue to Siemens a couple of years ago but I do not know if they plan any changes.
In our workflow we would like to place our assembly on top of a image. Same outcome. It looks ok in NX but the pdf is not.

I did find the very poor workaround to open the exported pdf in Inkscape and there modify the "order" in the pdf.

Raster image support in drafting is... not great.
