Studio - how do you alter the background image to a custom image?

[philwept33]

Hi all, hoping you can help me again.

Im trying to alter the background image within the design studio with a personal image. I can use the preloaded image but wont let me use on of my own.

Finally, is it possible to view my assembly with a background image whilst maintaining its "true shading" properties such as the shiny stainless finish im currently using?

Thanks for your time.

Does this do what you want?

Go to...

View -> Visualization -> Basic Scene Editor...

...and select the 'Background' tab, set the Background type to 'Image File' and then select your favorite .jpg, .tif or .png file.
