make image ole unselectable

I cut and pasted an image in from adobe using the snapshot tool.  Now i want to draw on top.  How can i make it unselectable. Using autocad lt 2009.  in older versions you could right click and there was an option was to make it selectoable/unselectable.

 

I tried putting on a separate layer and locking and tried oleframe.  it is still selectable.

 

thanks

Welcome to the forums

 

At the command line type in IMAGEFRAME. Change the number to 0

 

If you need to reselect the image use the above command again, but change the number to 1

No joy. I tried selecting the image and turning imageframe to 0  and tried without the image selected and turning imageframe to 0.  Maybe i don't know what the snapshot cut from autocad is?

Right I've just had a quick look.

 

1. I see you are using the student version. Just be aware that you cannot use this drawing in a commerical version of Autocad because the plot stamp will appear on the commercial version as well.

 

2. OLEFRAME and change it to 0

Thanks. I think that works. If you select the border it's still selectable, like with select window.
