Description

Imports an image for display on one of the main planes (including offset).

Use

Click on .
A dialogue box will open asking you for the file name.
Afterwards you will be presented with the standard-FreeCAD-dialogue asking for the orientation of the image.

Properties

  • The image can be scaled by editing the DataXSize and DataYSize values in the Property editor.
  • The image can be moved in the 3D view by editing the DataPlacement in the Property editor.
  • The image can be rotated around any axis by using the Property editor.

Notes

Selecting the image in the tree view and activating its data-tab in the property view lets you select size
and orientation of the image. Specifying a small offset of 0,1 mm on import will make it easier to trace the image.
