Scale

If you select Proportional, the scaling value you specify applies uniformly to the image's width and height. Selecting Non-proportional, allows you to specify individual values to width and height.

Plane

Display View places image on the display view plane. Construction Plane places image on the construction plane.

Selecting Select for placement allows you to indicate the position of image. Image Anchor indicates the anchor position of image.
