Importing tiff, jpg, png and pdf?
Importing tiff, jpg, png and pdf?
(OP)
Hi.
How can I import an image file with a format different to TIFF?
NX is supposed to be able to import jpg and png too. But when you browse for the file only Tiff files seem pickable.
Isn't it?
I want to use it as a base to sketch a spline on it.
Can I also import an image within a pdf?

I'm using NX8.5

And, NO, PDF's are not importable into NX for any purpose.

I have another problem.
If I import the raster image and I place it on a plane ...
later, I cannot use it because whenever I place the mouse over the image it gets preselected and therefore it turns red, preventing me from seeing anything.

And if you're thinking of selecting the planar surface as the sketch plane, while you CAN do that, it's probably a very poor workflow. It would be much better to simply created the planar surface in the defualt X-Y Plane of the Datum CSYS, move it to a Visible-only layer and then create your sketch using THAT same Datum Plane. If you had used the actual planar surface as your Sketch plane then the surface would be a 'parent' of the sketch meaning that you could never delete nor suppress this surface if you didn't want it to be included in the part file at some future date without having to mess with re-parenting the sketch, so you might as well take care of that situation right upfront.
