Importing Reference Images in Blender 4.0 | How to Add Reference Image in Blender | CADable | CADable tutorials Welcome back to CADable! I'm Engr. Ibrahim Omer, and today I'm excited to guide you through the process of importing reference images in Blender 4.0. Whether you're using this version or one above or below, you're in the right place! Let's kick things off by clearing out the default cube, light, and camera. With that done, hit Shift + A to add your reference image. Now, here's a little trick: initially, the image might not be perfectly placed, but fear not! Press Alt + R, and voilà, your image snaps into place just right. Need to tweak its orientation? Simply hit R to rotate it, perhaps aligning it to the xy plane.
