Ah ... now that has caused me to think. A check on my Misc>Choices shows that "Reference if over 200k" is ticked, which means that these particular pictures will have been referenced automatically.

Unticking that option solves the problem. Oops, sorry about that.

As you will have seen I'd come to the same conclusion before your posting appeared. Does show where the bug lies.


I suppose OP should have look for some sort of "up call" (RISC OS terminology - the Windows equivalent escapes me at the moment) and when the referenced file is changed automatically update the document contents.

I think that is how it should work, but it would mean that there would be no need for dragging/dropping the picture into the document.
