Placing a picture

I greatly enjoy using Dplot for making surface contour maps, but sometimes I need to also define a boundary, can I place a picture on top of the graph as a reference so that I can trace my boundary? and how?

No, sorry - there's no way to do that.

This is the first mention of adding a background picture I've seen for which the answer is not "Copy/paste to PowerPoint, it will do the job better than I would anyway", so I'll definitely give this one some thought.

Thank you for looking into it, as I mentioned and since we are doing contour selections for parcels, and site grading, it would be nice if I can trace the areas that need cuts and fills.

I use DPlot to produce equipment performance curves that are then included in our proposals. I would like to include a company logo in a corner or in a note but Copy/Paste does not recognize an image or picture file. It would be nice if you could incorporate such a feature.

Regards,

Hi,

Maybe this has already been implemented, but I'm unaware of it. Basically what I need is a possibility to place a company logo, either picture or a text string, somewhere on a graph like in the top right corner. Is such a function available?

Thanks,

No, sorry.

If I were in a hurry to do this myself, I'd Copy/Paste a plot into PowerPoint and insert the logo there.
