or this program. The image name can be
identical to the file name, but changing the image name does not change
the file name.
Tree View
Displays all the image definitions and the levels of nesting of images within
xrefs. The top level of the tree view shows images that you attached directly
to the drawing, images nested in block references, and the names of
externally referenced drawings containing images. The names of the images
attached to the externally referenced drawings appear nested within the
drawing at the next tree level.
To insert a copy of an already attached image, select it, and then choose
Attach.
Tree view lists the image names only (not file names) and lists the image
name just once, regardless of how many times the image is attached (insert).
You can edit an image name by selecting it and then clicking it again, or
by selecting it and then pressing F2 . However, you cannot select more
than one image at a time.
Attach
Displays the Select Image File dialog box. See IMAGEATTACH. When you
unload and then reload an image, that image is drawn on top. For more
information, see DRAWORDER. Images remain loaded or unloaded from one
drawing session to the next.
Detach
Removes the selected image definitions from the drawing database and erases
all the associated image objects from the drawing and from the display.
Reload
Loads the most recent version of an image or reloads an image that was
previously unloaded. Reloading does not control whether the image is
displayed, but it ensures display of the most current image.
