Paste from Clipboard

Add an image copied to the clipboard to a drawing. For example, you can copy a desired area from an image opened in Paint application. It is not necessary to save the image as a file.

1. Select Drawing | Tools | Raster Images > Paste from Clipboard .
2. The image will be resized according to the scale of the drawing. Scale the raster, if necessary:
   • Select Scale factor or press F8, and enter the factor in a text box. The default value is 1. The factor affects in the direction of the x and y axes. A factor value between 0-1 makes the raster smaller, for example, the factor 0.8. A factor value larger than 1 enlarges the raster.
   • Select Measure and set scale. Define the scalable distance by clicking two points, and enter the actual distance between the points in a text box. If you want to click the scalable distance in the raster image, first add the raster, and then move it from the grip point or with the function Move Raster Image.
3. Click a raster position.
