Manipulating REM Objects

After you define a region object or primitive object, you can manipulate the REM objects to modify the raster data.

You work with REM objects much as you work with other AutoCAD objects, although REM objects have special characteristics.

Topics in this section

Editing REM Objects
After defining a region object or a primitive object, you can use a variety of commands to modify the raster data.
Resizing a REM Object
Use REM Refine Mode to modify the geometry of a REM region or primitive object.
Using REM Operations
Use REM operations to trim or extend raster lines, to add offset lines, to add corner fillets, or to smooth raster linework.
Defining REM Objects Partially Outside the Image
Define a REM region object to be partly outside the image.
Using REM to Delete Raster Data
You can use REM objects to delete raster data from your image.
Clearing REM Objects
Clearing a REM object has one of two effects, depending on whether the object is associated with an image:
Merging REM Objects into an Image
You can use the Merge to Raster Image command to merge REM objects into the source image or into another image.
Converting REM Objects to a New Raster Image
You can convert one or more REM objects to a new raster image.
Using REM Background Transparency
REM objects respect the background transparency settings of the source image, including state and color.
Using REM Copy To Clipboard Command
Use this command to copy REM objects to the Windows Clipboard. You can then use the objects in an external application.
Separating Raster Linework Using Knife
Use the Knife command to separate raster linework by drawing a line that is one pixel wide through raster data.
