    Default OLE snap points within AutoCAD LT 2007

    Good morning! I am using LT AutoCAD 2007. I was wondering how you create a Vector snap to an OLE object within AutoCAD. Prior to importing the image, it has endpoint grips and midpoint grips. After importing it, it only had endpoint grips. Is there a way to add a vector back to the midpoint?

    Just checking...

    Do you mean grips within the Image Editor you are using OR within AutoCAD ?

    Within AutoCAD the OLE Object will only display grips in the corners ( EndPoints ) when the OLE Object is selected ( and OLE Frame is turned On ).

    But! you can use the OSnap MidPoint on an OLE Object ( regardless if the OLE Frame is turned On or Off ).

    Have a good one, Mike

    Okay - I have figured out what I need to do. Thanks for your help! My co worker was looking for the midpoint to stretch and skew the image to fit within a box without scaling proportionately. I went into the properties dialog and unlocked the image. Thanks again! have a nice afternoon!
