Publisher 2.1.1 and beta 2.2 The resource manager does not show all resources


Recommended Posts

I selected a photo in Layers panel on page 26 and wanted to see where it was physically located. I opened Resource Manager and didn't see any link to the photo. When I expanded the picture frame in the Layers panel, I could see the name of the picture. But the folder where I had previously saved the package didn't contain the photo.
I opened the old file from which I created the package. The Resource Manager doesn't show where the photo is. It doesn't show that the photo doesn't exist. And I can't determine where it is physically located.
I only work with the local disk.
Windows 10. Version 2.1.1
The photo is not blurred on the page, which means that the Publisher knows about it.

Can I reproduce it? Who knows? This is the first time I've encountered this.
What other studio in the Publisher can show the route to a file?

Perhaps you put this particular photo into the Publisher document via a Copy and Paste operation.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.6 
Affinity Designer 2.5.5 | Affinity Photo 2.5.5 | Affinity Publisher 2.5.5 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

I just saw that the picture was like a pixel. So it was embedded or something? Where are the pixel images?

They are just layers in your document, and as they are not embedded or linked files they are not in the Resource Manager. There is no record of where they came from.

But why? I remember that I used a perspective for the picture. Why did I lose the link?

Because the Resource Manager is for Linked and Embedded documents/files, and once you've Rasterized the document it's just a Pixel layer; it's not Embedded or Linked.
