Cropping image

[GoldenGateNetwork]

Good afternoon. Could someone please tell me how to get rid of unwanted areas in raster images? for Example I got several images already imported into my model and I don't want to use Paint in order to cut unwanted areas like black frames. I know there is something like "cropping" or something but YouTube don't show much.

here you are an example of raster image with unwanted area both on the top and the bottom: (I was unable to upload any image, you just use imagination, system says file exceeds...)

any suggestion please?

Thank you

place the image in a model view (plan, detail, elevation) then use the view's crop region to crop it.

Thank you for your response... How can I please place my image in a model view?

Thank you

[ToanDN]

Duplicate or create a new view (I think Area Plan is the best option).  Drag drop the image in a blank area.  Turn on View Crop region and crop the view. You can even create a custom shaped crop.

Thank you for your response but this option does not work for me , I have like 100 differents images and I would need to create 100 different views.

Then crop them outside of Revit and reload them via Insert > Manage Images.

... there's probably a Dynamo solution to place 100 images and create those views.

for editing image create 100 views are unnecessary. better to follow @ToanDN  response use outside Revit get into Revit.

To be honest I do not understand your answer, thanks

[GoldenGateNetwork]

WHAT ABOUT IF I WANT TO PLACE AN IMAGE IN THE BACKGROUND OF A LEGEND? CAN YOU CROP A LEGEND? IF NOT IMAGE WILL NEED TO BE CROPPED. YOU COULD DO IT BEFORE IMPORT, BUT IT MAKES IT EASIER TO DO AFTER BECAUSE OF SCALING.
