Publisher – displacing assets

[Gaunilo]

Hello!

I have a book with tons of pictures. If these pictures get moved, I have to relocate them via assets.

If 20 pictures have moved into a new folder, I have to relocate each and every one. Publisher seems unable to realize that in the same folder are all the other pictures that were relocated.
So instead of being asked if I want to reconnect them, I have to manually add each and every one. Even if the file-names didn't change.

This is a bit of a nuisance. Am I doing anything wrong, is there a way to do this?

Thanks a lot for your help.

If the pictures have moved to a different folder, and you then Open the Publisher document that refers to them, you will get a popup asking if you want to locate them, and offering you 3 choices: Yes, No, and Resource Manager.

Pick Yes, not Resource Manager. When you locate the first one, Publisher will find the rest of them in that same folder.

Ah… now that makes… well it doesn't but once you know it, one can use it that way. 

Thank you very much. This was really a concern because I didn't dare to reorganize the pictures.
