I'm not sure I understand the question... I think you want a rotoscope?

 

Select the modeling window you want (front , back, whatever...)

 

Drag an image from your images folder to the modeling window.

 

Choose "rotoscope" in the dialog that comes up.

 

It will also appear in the PWS under your model. Set the glove icon to off so you can't select it while you are drawing splines over it later.

Thanks Robcat

 

When I'm draging the image onto the window, I do'nt get a dialog box and nothing happens. I do'nt see the image.

Hi!

 

The other way to do it:

1.) Open a modeling-window.

2.) (rightclick) in the modeling-window (at a free space).

3.) In the menu click on "New > Rotoscope".

4.) Choose the image you want to have as a rotoscope.

 

See you

I did also found this solution, but I do'nt get a result.

In the e Workspace, the image folder gets a little star showing I think that something exists. I change in the properties the resolution but it did'nt help.

I switched the window display from default to shaded, no result

Is perhaps the solution in the options?

I'm working under Win 7.

I found the solution. My image was a 48 bit jpeg image. It works now wih a 24 bit image.

Thanks for your help. I can now start modeling seriously my smurf....
