    How would I be able to place a scan/jpeg into SolidWorks and sketch
    over it? I tried placing it as a decal but when I go to begin my
    sketch the decal is no longer visible... Is this even possible?

    Thanks

    Definitly insert the picture (I use tiffs) into a sketch - not just
    onto a plane outside a sketch. It's much easier to control the
    sketching over the picture if it's in the base sketch.
