WeebleSue Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I have added a picture that is a floor plan that I'm tracing. I'd like to temporarily hide it without deleting it. Other (cheaper) programs allow this option but not HDA 2015. I don't want to have to delete it to see my plan without the background, because it is a BEAR to import it again and resize to get the dimensions exactly right. I searched the forum but didn't find anything on this. I searched Help too. Thanks Susan HDA 2015 Win8.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo_Ann Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I see no option in the tool/display options to uncheck an imported picture. BUT...you could copy the pic, then move to the attic level, and paste hold position. Delete the pic on the original level. When you need to re-display the pic on the original level again, copy/ paste hold position back to the original level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Can you not turn off the display of Images in HDA in Tools>Display Options>Images ? (uncheck the Disp(lay) option for images) I have used Jo_Ann's trick in the past for my own notes (text) etc so should work with an image too.... Mick.

WeebleSue Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 Thank you for your suggestions, and I will try it.... but I have one image for the 1st floor and a 2nd image for the 2nd floor. Can I move both images to the attic level? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Another option is to move the image to the right or left temporarily, if you place the images in the "Attic" level and then build a new upper floor the images will be deleted, if you leave the attic level alone, it should be fine, I'm just saying...

katalyst777 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 You can turn it off, it just isn't on the "Images" layer like some suggested, it's on the "CAD, Default" layer. (I don't understand the logic behind that layer though, but it works.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo_Ann Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Wow! I would never have thought to try unchecking the CAD layer, and it DOES work. Thanks for the tip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Kbird1 Posted January 21, 2015 Solution Share Posted January 21, 2015 You can turn it off, it just isn't on the "Images" layer like some suggested, it's on the "CAD, Default" layer. (I don't understand the logic behind that layer though, but it works.) Me either but I think it works cos everything you import to HD is assigned to the Default CAD Layer (CMiIW) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
