Renderworks00038.pngCreating Image Backgrounds

To be used for a background, an image must be in one of the formats listed in Selecting the Image for Import.

To create an image background:

1. Create the background resource as described in Creating Layer Backgrounds.

2. Select Image from the Background list.

3. Select a new image or an image from either the default content or the current file’s content (see Resource Libraries).

The Edit Image Background dialog box opens; specify the image height and width (centered on the page). An image used as a background of this type, as opposed to the HDRI background, remains fixed to the page and does not change according to the 3D view.

An image can also be reused from another image-based resource if one exists in the file. In the Choose Image dialog box, select Reuse an Image from Another Resource and specify the resource. The Edit Image Background dialog box opens to allow editing of image parameters (see Selecting the Image for Import for more information).

4. Click OK to use the image in the background.
