Reload
Reloads the selected images, making that information available for display
and plotting.
Unload
Removes image data from working memory so that the images are not
displayed, thus improving performance. All information associated with the
image remains stored with the drawing. The image frame of each attached
image remains visible.
Attach
Attaches a new image or a copy of an attached image to the current drawing.
The Select Image File dialog box (a standard file selection dialog box) is
displayed.
The file name without the extension is assigned as the image name. Image
names can include up to 255 characters and contain letters, digits, spaces, and
any special characters not used by the operating system or this program. If
the file name is not a valid name for a nongraphical object, the Substitute
Image Name dialog box is displayed. A valid image name is generated from
the file name and an underscore and number are appended to the name.
If a definition with the same name and path exists in the drawing, the
following prompts are displayed and the image is inserted as a copy:
Image file name has already been loaded.
Use IMAGE Reload to update its definition.

If the FILEDIA system variable is set to 0, the following prompt is displayed
instead of the dialog box:

The last image name attached to the drawing during the current session is the
default. To avoid errors when entering an image name, it is recommended
that you specify both the image name and the file name as follows:
imagename=path name\long file name.bmp
