Haven't been able to reproduce this here but I'm not sure what you mean by
'delete picture with Ctrl k' - that deletes the frame as well.
Why delete the old picture? Why not just drop the revised version into the
original frame?
Having dropped the revised picture into the frame I can toggle between the
old and new versions using 'undo' and 'redo'.
All this was with non-referenced pictures - haven't tried it with
referenced.
