[#1065940]

I have imported a print screen into model space but i cannot rotate it. I try to rotate by reference and all it allows me to do is move it around 360 from a base point i havent selected somewhere off the to left. It doesnt even rotate the image, all it does is keep it at its current rotation but moves it around this point i didnt select. I have tried help but thats useless and i've tried various descriptions into google to see if its a common issue but nothing helps. I have tried a different drawing but thats no different. I can rotate lines in the same drawing but not this image. I could really do with rotating it. Anyone got any pointers?

You’re importing a screen grab? As in a Jpeg image or similar?

Normal “_rotate” comand should work, then just pick a base point easiest often to type "0,0,0" and input the rotation angle rather than guess it…

Might help for the future if you have problems selecting a raster xref, set IMAGEFRAME = 1 also the align function is useful for scaling rasters to correct proportions. Si
