Switching from "linked" media to "embedded" doesn't work

[World View]

By mistake I had "linked" selected in a document.

So Affinity wanted to establish the linking to a document that was on a turned-off external hard drive.

I did that, and switched the document setup to "embedded"  - I know there's a bug where even when "linked" is chosen, all documents are embedded (which I can see in the file size)

After establishing the link, I turned off the external hard drive and opened the document again.

And again Affinity is asking me for "linked" documents, even though the setup has been switched to "embedded" and all the documents are actually embedded.

I have to send out this document, so I need embedded.

What does this not work? Do I have to do the whole document (20 pages) again from scratch?

 

thanks for tips to resolve this problem!

Assuming you mean the setting in Document Setup, that only has an effect on newly added documents/images.  The status of existing ones can be changed in Resource Manager from the Document menu.

Thank you for introducing the Resource Manager to me.

I could switch all the images in the document to embedded in a minute!
