About Viewing Raster Image Information

You can view file-specific information about the raster images that are attached to a drawing. You can also load and unload the images and perform other operations using the Reference Manager palette.

In the Reference Manager palette, you can view image information about each of the attached images.

The following information is displayed:

• Name of the image or selected external reference
• Status (loaded, unloaded, or not found)
• File size
• File type
• Date and time file was last saved
• Name of the saved path

If an image cannot be found, its status is listed as Not Found. A Not Found image is displayed as an image boundary in the drawing even if the IMAGEFRAME system variable is set to off. If the image is unreferenced, no instances are attached for the image. If the image is not loaded, its status is Unloaded. Images with a status of Unloaded or Not Found are not displayed in the drawing.

Use the Tree View

The top level of the tree view lists referenced files in the order that they were attached. In most cases an image file is linked directly to the drawing and listed at the top level. However, if a DWG file reference or a block contains a linked image, additional levels are displayed.

View Image File Details

In the lower panes of the Reference Manager palette, you can preview a selected image or view image file details, including

• Image name
• Saved path
• Active path (where the image is found)
• File creation date
• File size
• File type
• Color
• Color depth
• Image size (pixel width and height, resolution and default size)
