General page (Insert Image dialog box)

When inserting an image or picture into the document, the General page on the Insert Image dialog box specifies the image to be inserted and whether it is linked to or embedded in the document.

When editing the properties of an inserted image or picture, the only options that you can change are Transparent Color and Image Opacity.

File Name

Specifies the name of the image file.

Browse

Opens the Open a File dialog box for you to search for image files. If you do not know the image file format you are looking for, you can set the Files of type list to All Image Files (*bmp,*.png,*.jpg,*.jpeg,*.jpe,*,tif,*.tiff).

Link to File

Creates an associative link to the file from which the image is created. If you want to embed the image file, clear this check box.

Transparent Color

Specifies a single transparent color for the image.

To apply transparency, set the Use Transparent Color check box, click the Pick Color button, and then click a color in the image thumbnail to specify a transparent color.

To remove transparency, clear the Use Transparent Color check box.

Image Opacity

Specifies the opacity for the image. At 0%, the image is entirely transparent; at 100%, it is entirely opaque. The Image Opacity option is not available in the Draft environment.
