JPEG in Drawing

[md2lgyk]

Hi, new here, first post. I'm having trouble with jpeg images. I insert them into my drawings (I've been putting them in model space) and then draw lines over them in paper space. But if I save and then reopen a drawing, the lines are hidden behind the jpeg. How can I fix this?

Do a quick print preview, does it still show the lines as behind the

jpeg?

Just highlight the image and send it to the back of the draworder.

Just to clarify Bob, to find the draw-order-command, right-click when the image is highlighed.

Sorry, but I'm pretty much a beginner. How do I do that?

[skipsophrenic]

Select the jpeg and then in the menue bar click

 

Tools>Draw Order>Send to Back

You can also type in "DR" and then select the image and then it will ask what order to place it in.

Thanks 4 memory jog bob, i'd forgot that 1.

Thanks to both of you for the info. I found that the lines do show in Plot Preview (and actually plot) even if I can't see them in the drawing. Moving the image to the back has no effect. If I close and then reopen the drawing, the lines reappear, but when I toggle between model and paper space they disappear again. Surely it's not supposed to work like that?

That's one problem I've run into myself. Try doing a regen, they should fix themselves.
