"IMAGEFRAME" command

After inserting an image into Autocad it has a frame around it so you can select it. If you want to turn this frame of tyoe the command "IMAGEFRAME" to set its visibility.
  • Setting 0 - Image frames are NOT displayed & NOT plotted.
  • Setting 1 - Image frames are BOTH displayed & plotted
  • Setting 2 - Image frames are displayed but NOT plotted

Useful little tip as more & more images are being used within AutoCAD these days.
