why when I go to drag the image to meet the end of the scale tool to the origin the scale line and image don't drag together, they separate and annoyingly I lose the scaling? how do I drag both at the same time?

[@MLCCADSystems]

I typically only use the scale tool initially to scale the image, then I ignore it and simply move and position the image as needed. It is a one-time tool and has no purpose after that.

Hi! New to the channel here! quick question, what if the modify dialogue box does not pop up after placing the end marker? Is there a keystroke for it?

[@Zzzukas]

its a bug in earlier versions.

[@MLCCADSystems]

Yes, if you are on an early service pack update it to the latest service pack for that release and it should resolve the issue.

Looks like Sketch Picture is greyed out for me 🙁. I only have SolidWorks for Makers.

[@MLCCADSystems]

It should be available as long as you are in edit sketch mode. Try creating a blank sketch and see if it becomes available.
