I have a drawing that has an OLE image in the drawing format. In this particular drawing the image is not showing up. The border around the image is there but nothing else. All my layers are on and OLEHIDE is set to 0. Every other drawing I opened that uses the same format is fine.

 

I have attached the file with just the formats (my company is pretty strict with posting any drawings). The image should appear in the bottom left corner.

 

Thank you

Maybe the path to the image was hard coded.

How can I tell if that is the case? When I first created the drawing a few weeks ago, the format was fine so I am not sure what happened and why it is just this one drawing that is affected.

 

Here are the properties of the image from another drawing....if that helps at all.

 

I never really learned a lot about inserting images and xrefs and learned what little I do know just from the help files.

 

Thanks

The three path options are Full, Relative or No Path (the image file must be located in the same folder as the current drawing file).

I copied one of the formats that was missing the image into another drawing file, and the image appeared so there is something up with that one specific drawing file. I just did a save as on the 2nd drawing file and copied and pasted the info from the 'broken' file into that and all is good.

 

Thanks for the suggestions.
