How does autocad handle pixel type plans for working over ?

by "Steve" <dornier@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Feb 27, 2008 at 10:40 PM

Hi,
How does Autocad handle pixel type plans (bitmap, tiff, jpg etc) for 
bringing in, to then be traced over with the polyline tools etc.
Q1) Has it the ability to import a plan and place it on a layer to then be

locked and traced over.
Q2) If one has a plan of the objects front, another of its top view,
another 
of the end view, how does one arrange these, different viewports perhaps ?
Q3) Can it handle more than one plan, and control the stacking order, so
if 
you want to see plan B on top of plan A, is that possible ?
Q4) Is there a construction grid and is it visible still after a plan is 
brought in ? Is it necessary to make the plan translucent to see it ?
Q5) Is there a size limit on the plan pixel width and height due to OpenGL

or similar. What is the biggest size that can be brought in ?
Q6) Can visibility be turned on or off ?
Q7) Can greyscale plans be coloured and made translucent so as to register

them together and compare content ?
Q8) Can colour rgb plans be brought in and what are the limits, as these
can 
have large file sizes. Is the limit autocad or the pc ?
Q9) Does autocad allow adjusting of such plans for fit to the work drawn
so 
far, scaling disproportionally as well as proportionally,  rotation, 
distortion etc.

Cheers
Steve
