Add reference images

How can I add reference images in 2.8… feel like I’m learning the whole program again.

Edit: and where to adjust the clipping :slight_smile:

In the add menu, select image, and then choose either background or reference. There is a difference, but off the top of my head I can’t remember. But I ended up selecting Background. In the materials tab, there are some options. You can also change scale and location in the object tab (I think). Alpha is changed by going to object tab, and then viewport visibility, and clicking the color and changing the ‘A’ value.

So next question then is, how can I make it visible from any angle, because at the moment it’s essentially a plane object?
