objects not visible thru inserted .jpeg's

[strwbrylady]

inserted photos (.jpeg) thru image manager, we've tried both transparent and non-transparent settings, somehow either way hides or blocks all text and objects that should be visible. all layers are turned on and not locked.

Hi,

Why don't you try with draworder command? It should put the objects exactly where you want to see them.

Hope this helps,

on the CHPROP menu, under Transparency, there is a line
for Transparency Color. You'll need to click on that line.
The program will bring up a pop-up with the color of
Transparency. The default color is white, but you jpeg
probably isn't white. Pick on the box, then pick the color
on the jpeg that is in the majority (usually the white
area outside the actually picture).
This should help.
Also, you'll probably need to change your display screen
to white.

The best command to make it so you can see the lines below the image is to use the transparency command. It is specifically designed for image transparancy. You can access this command a few ways.

1) type transparency at the command line. Click the jpg and turn on transparency.

or
2) right click on one of your autocad icons, find the Reference toolbar, and select the icon that looks like a white box thru the paint streakes.

Also the Reference toolbar gives you a command called imageframe which turns the border off around your jpgs.

Hope it helped.

Enjoy
