I do not see a way to control visiblilty of a raster image (jpeg) in a family (titleblock) that is in a project. I want the ability to turn off a stamp before plotting. R-2012. Raster images in model categories did not work. Adding a parameter in the titleblock family under 'Lock Proportions' did not work. (Other elements that use these same parameters to turn on/off visibilty were available there.)
Thanks
instead of inserting the image directly into the title sheet family you can insert the image into a "Generic Annotation" family and then instert that family into your title sheet family... you can then assign a visiblilty parameter to the generic annotation family.
Thanks. That was very helpful. I decided that I needed to do the stamp separately from the titleblock so I didn't have to click the stamp off in each family type. I still used the same method for the stamp family itself. It works with the ease that I was trying to accomplish. Thanks again!
One thing I can't figure out is how to get the image to become a checkbox in the titleblock. Following what has already been said, I created a generic annotation, imported the image and loaded it into the titleblock. It works well enough to simply open the titleblock and turn the visibility on and off but I don't really care for having to save and overwrite parameters. Does anyone have any idea how to accomplish this? I looked it up in help and nothing came from following the steps.
Thanks!
Also, is it simply possible to make all of the same image turn off/on or would I have to click the checkbox for every sheet? I'm thinking it has to do with type/instance parameter but am not completely certain.
I run v.2017
Again, thanks!
You are right.....
Another trick is to place a solid white filled region with invisible boundary and control visibility (in reversed order), so when the filled region is ON the image is OFF.
