Inserting Image via the Draw Freely Command
Posted: Fri May 03, 2013 1:43 pm
A feature which some users might find useful is the "Create Image" option in draw freely. This allows the user to insert an image file anywhere on the display window. This provides a quick way of adding customized symbols or images to an existing display.

Advantages
1.) Multiple images can be added
2.) They can be placed anywhere on the screen
There are a couple disadvantages:
1.) The image will rotate with the display, depending on the purpose, this could be either desirable or undesirable.
2.) Draw Freely Images that are outside the "box" when Clip View at Box is selected will not be visible.
For Logos, it is best to use the Show Logo in View>Edit>Preferences. This allows placement of the logo without rotation when the display is rotated.
