Hi ALL
When I import a bit mat image and trace through it some times the traced lines are on top of the image sometimes they disappear behind the image when I turn the image layer on/off.
My procedure is as follows
Scan sections of the original (it is a large original)
Create a layer for them.
Import them one by one.
Copy and move the individual images to create a mosaic.
Rescale the bit maps to suit the drawing QCAD units.
Trace and draw the objects with different layers.
Turn the scanned image layer off so I can do some addition detail on the traced objects.
Turn the scanned image layer on,
That is when I cannot see all of my drawing some of it is will hidden behind behind the different sections of the bit maps.

Re: SEE THROUGH LAYER
You can move the image to the background using Modify > Send to Back. Layers are not related to drawing order in any way.
Re: SEE THROUGH LAYER
Hi,
you can send entities (not a layer) to the front or back with (MF) and (MB).
You can't fade a layer but you can fade a bitmap within the Property Editor. Makes tracing much easier ....
Select the bitmap and check the Property Editor below "Specific Properties".
