New path to resource folder in resource manager. For all selected at once.

[kirk23]

Please make  it possible to input new path to selected  resources.  I use Affinity photo to composite  3d render and  sometimes I need just to relink the same names  files but to a new folder .   Please make  Replace button  work with several resources selected  to be able to point to new folder for all of them  or just let us copy paste  the new  path  for all selected at once.

You can already do this, via a slightly different workflow. 

1. Close the document.
2. Rename the folder that contains the linked files to some other name.
3. Open the document. When prompted, click Yes.
4. Locate the other folder you want to use, when prompted to locate a file. 
5. All files will be relinked to that folder.

Or, at step 3, you could click Resource Manager in the prompt, and then use the Relink button.

Thanks Walt. it's definitely a workaround but wouldn't it be nice if working just  straight away.  Without renaming folders. Considering the option is already there  basically when you do step4.

This is broken in Publisher. Attempting to work on a publisher file on both a Mac, as well as an iPad. 26 pages with linked designer file on each page. Make some changes on Mac, open it on the iPad, get the missing resource dialog. Choose “yes” and navigate to the file (on the networked Mac) and… nothing happens. Doesn’t update, nor does it find any of the other missing files. If I choose the missing (linked) file and use “replace,” it annoyingly become an embedded file.
