user Q Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 i am using a jpg in a design layer & i want to sketch over it in another design layer. is this possible? (i do not want to redraw the entire jpg!) it would be very cool if i could use the screened jpg w/ the over-layed sketch in my sheet layer vp. thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Why not ... just make sure the ImageLayer Page Scale is same as the DesignLayer Page Scale prior to import of the jpg. Simplifies the Sheet >ViewPort. Quote Link to comment
user Q Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 thanks for the help - still having some problems the jpg is only visible in 'visible' mode, but i want it visible in 'grey' mode. same goes for the sheet layers vp's - is there a way to view the jpg as greyed or screened? or do i need to make a greyed out jpg? thanks again.

Kevin McAllister Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 The opacity of any image can be changed in the Attributes palette. I often dial them back to 50% for tracing over.... Kevin Quote Link to comment
