1. Select an imported image, and select the command.
A colored border around the drawing window indicates that you are in an editing mode. The Exit Bitmap Crop command becomes available from the Modify menu, and the Exit Bitmap Crop button is visible in the top right corner of the drawing window.
2.Create a 2D object such as a rectangle, circle, or polyline. The 2D object must define an area; for example, a 2D line cannot be used. Position the 2D object to delimit the new image display area. The pen style can be set from the Attributes palette while in Edit Crop mode.
3.Click Exit Bitmap Crop to return to the design layer.
The cropped image displays; in the Object Info palette, the Crop status changes to Yes.
4.To change the visibility of the crop object, change the Crop Visible setting in the Object Info palette. The crop object can be a visible frame for the bitmap in the drawing, or it can be invisible.
5.To permanently delete the part of the image that lies outside the crop object, click Delete Outside Crop from the Object Info palette. When prompted, click Yes to confirm the deletion. The Object Info palette displays the new image file size.
If the image file is referenced, this action will break the reference.
To change, replace, or delete the crop object, select the image and then select the command again to re-enter Edit Crop mode.
