ConnectCreative Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Currently having to manually update a pile of links within a product catalogue. One feature I really miss from InDesign (sorry to swear) was the ability for the Resource Manager to find additional missing links automatically, once you'd pointed it in the right direction of just one missing link. It would save SO much time if Publisher could tell that all the other missing images were in the same folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can, but you need to know the trick. When you Open the project, and you get the popup telling you that images are missing, do not click Resource Manager. Click Yes. When you locate one of the images, any other missing images in the same folder will be found, too.

ConnectCreative Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 YOU'RE A STAR! Thank you for the tip, that will save me a load of time. Wish it worked like that when using the Resource Manager but this is a great workaround. Thanks! walt.farrell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder whether the devs were tempted to call it the ‘Rethink’ button!! garrettm30 1 Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.4.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
