Inserting images in LT

Inserting images in LT

Inserting images in LT

(OP)
Could anyone remind me of the keyboard shortcut to bring up the insert dialogue box in AutoCAD LT 2002 so I can insert a JPEG. I know it can be done but I can't remember how? thank

RE: Inserting images in LT

I'm not sure because I use an older version of light.  When I can do something by selecting buttons but don't know the command, I do it one then hit f2 to see what commands were used.  I then use the same command with a - or _ in front of it to force it to be all text entered.  Then I can usually work it out.

RE: Inserting images in LT

Attach/insert raster images even in AutoCAD LT (hidden trick).

It is easy to attach raster image files in AutoCAD LT 2002 (2000i, 2000) although it is a disabled functionality.
Start the _IMAGE command to start the Image Manager and press Alt+A keys (English and Italian version only, use Alt+Z for the German, Alt+T for the French, Alt+D for the Polish, Alt+E for the Spanish versions).

hope this helps.

don't have LT to test.
