Overlay model on aerial photo?

[danrpe]

Has anyone found an easy way to place their HydoCAD model on an aerial photo so a client can visualize what each symbol represents. I can "print screen" and paste, but do not know how to make it transparent so the photo can be seen.

You can save images as a .tiff file or numerous others and raster reference into Microstation or AutoCAD. I know you can control raster transparency in Microstation but I have not figured that out in ACAD yet

I've been working with images lately and might be able to help you, but don't work with HydroCAD and I would need to know what image format HydroCAD can import, or alternatively, what kinds of model overlay diagrams can be exported by HydroCAD.
