User Guide

For single-band integer (16- or 32-bit) data definitions, a submenu allows
you to choose either a grayscale or palette color insertion. Choosing palette
color opens the Palette Assignment Color Map dialog box.
For multispectral data definitions, a submenu allows you to choose a
grayscale, palette color, or false color insertion. Choosing grayscale opens
the Assign Multispectral Band (page 301) dialog box. Choosing palette color
opens the New Palette Color Insertion (page 344) dialog box. Choosing false
color opens the Band Assignment Color Map (page 301) dialog box.
■ Detach. Completely removes the image and its data definition from the
drawing and the toolspace tree.
■ Reload. Loads and redisplays an image that was previously unloaded from
the drawing
■ Unload. Removes an image from the display, but leaves the image frame
visible, and leaves the image icon on the toolspace tree.
■ Browse Path. Opens the Insert Image (page 338) dialog box to show you
the location of the source file for the image definition, also known as the
active path. If necessary, you can navigate to a different source file and
open it.
■ Save Path. Saves the current browse path (Active Path in item view) as the
saved path, which is where the image data definition is saved.
■ Clear Path. Deletes the saved path. Typically you do this in order to use
Browse Path to create a new active path, or to save the drawing without a
saved path. In the latter case, when the drawing is reopened, Raster Design
searches for the image using the prescribed search order set in AutoCAD
Options dialog box. (To access the AutoCAD Options dialog box, click
Tools menu ➤ Options.)
■ Refresh. Updates the toolspace tree to show any recent changes.
