To Create a Search Path for Raster Images

When you insert an image with the Insert An Image command, AutoCAD Map 3D toolset stores the location of the image in the drawing file. When you open a drawing, AutoCAD Map 3D toolset searches this stored location for the file. If the image has been moved or deleted, AutoCAD Map 3D toolset searches the Project Files Search Path.
