Modify Images and Image Boundaries

ActiveX and VBA Developer's Guide > Advanced Drawing and Organizational Techniques > Work with Raster Images >

All images have an image boundary. When you attach an image to a drawing, the image boundary inherits the current property settings, including color, layer, linetype, and linetype scale. If the image is a bitonal image, the image color and boundary color are the same.

As with other AutoCAD objects, you can modify images and their boundary properties. For example, you can:

Display or hide the image boundary
Modify the image layer, boundary color, and linetype
Change the image location
Scale, rotate, and change the width and height of the image
Toggle the image visibility
Change the image transparency
Change the image brightness, contrast, and fade
Change the quality and speed of image display

Show and Hide Image Boundaries
Change Image Layer, Boundary Color, and Boundary Linetype
Change Image Scale, Rotation, Location, Width, and Height
Change Image Visibility
Modify Bitonal Image Color and Transparency
Adjust Image Brightness, Contrast, and Fade
