Re: Graphic won't stay linked

["Alice Preston" <apreston2@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

John,

Though I'm using an older version of FrameMaker (5.5.1 on Windows/NT), I see
similar behavior when I have some graphics in one directory and some in another.
It can apparently deal fine with one source for graphics, but two sources seem
to confuse it--I think this started with release 5, but am not completely
certain.  Has anybody else seen this type of behavior (it's a drag when I want
to separate, say, screen captures from icon images)?  Actually, the width of the
error/correction dialog often keeps us from being able to see exactly what
graphic it is, too, which is also a drag.  What happened to the relative
pathname idea?

Thanks,

Hi all,

I have a graphic that won't stay linked.

Each and every time I open this fm doc, I get the "Missing File...Looking
for: ________" error. Each and every time, I re-link the graphic file and
make sure "Update Document to use New Path" is checked. Why won't it stay
updated? I save, I save and quit, I save and save and save and it still
refuses to find this one graphic at start-up. Any clues?

I'm using Frame 5.5.6 on Mac PowerPC.

Thanks,
