when you are done, the similar sized speckles that are found are highlighted in red and you are prompted to accept the selection set of what it is about to clean up. You can do this by either picking within a speckle or by making a window selection. You are then asked to specify the size of the speckle so that it will look for similar sized speckles and clean them up. So be aware that those may come across as “speckles” and may be cleaned. Note: I did notice that on a few drawings, it erased some periods and commas in text that was in the image. For this example I used I to clean the entire image. You are then asked to specify an area of the image that you wish to clean up. You can easily invert the colors so that the lines are white and the background is your normal AutoCAD background.Ĭlick on the “Cleanup” drop-down > then click “Invert”ĭESPECKLE – The little speckles that are present in the drawing from the image can be easily cleaned up and make your editing look that much cleaner (and easier to edit).Ĭlick the “Cleanup” drop-down and then “Despeckle” INVERT COLORS – Now that the image is in your drawing in black & white, you can change the colors so that you are working in a more familiar color scheme. To make the image “bitonal” click on the “Process Image” drop-down > then click “Change Color Depth” > then B in the command line to choose the “Bitonal” option. Shades of grey or color images simply wont work well in Raster Design. IMAGE TO BITONAL – Many of the tools in Raster Design only work if the image is “bitonal” (black & white). You can scale it by using the SCALE command or by dragging one of its corners to shrink or expand the image. Once the image is in your drawing, you may need to re-position and scale the image to fit your needs. If you want to take the default settings, click “Quick Insert” The 2 shown below are asking how you want to be prompted for various settings while inserting the image. Notice the options at the bottom of the screen. Note: The terminology is a little confusing because usually images are brought into AutoCAD with the ATTACH command and blocks are usually the only things that are “inserted”… The command line version for this tool is IINSERT INSERT AN IMAGE – Using the “Insert…” tool located on the far left of the ribbon, you can navigate to the image that is to be brought into the drawing.
