    I used to drag and drom an image from my desktop in a drawign in 2012 version.

    Now is not working and I get the following

     

    dragdrop.jpg

     

    Any ideas?

     

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,

     

    what image-format did you try, I checked now TIF and PNG, both work well.

    Does the command _IMAGE work with that file?

     

    I have tried it with AutoCAD 2013 German and Civil 3D 2013 German.

    Hi,

     

    ...and my second question?

    >> Does the command _IMAGE work with that file?

    What format TIFF files?  Can you insert them using the Reference palette at all?

    The drag & drop functionality appears to call the (imagefile) lisp function which is defined in Acad2013doc.lsp.

     

    Paste this to the command line:

     

    (startapp "notepad" (findfile "acad2013doc.lsp"))

     

    If a file does not open in Notepad, then your support file search paths are hosed more than likely.

     

    (Image format is not an issue at this point, since the lisp function isn't even getting to the point of firing that up)
