Creating a 3D model from pictures on a plane

I saw a video recently where a shell of a car was created in Creo parametric by pulling out shapes from pictures imbedded in the planes. The setup was started with the front, back, top and side planes containing the appropreate pictures. I would also like to do this, but i have no idea how to insert a .jpg image into the respective plane. Can anyone help?

    Matthew,

    You can insert the images on datum planes or surfaces using

    1. View > Model Display > Images.

    2. Add > Select plane or surface > Open image > Ok

      I also suggest using bitmap (,bmp) files. They tend to work where other formats tend to fail.

      you might also include some scaling features in the images to aid alignment and sizing.
