No images in Operator Comments

WARNING - First-time Poster!
When I import images into my full-screen Operator Comments, they are supposed to become part of the program, right? Most of my programs end up only showing SOME of the images. The Op Comment still shows the path that the comment was retrieved from, but no image is displayed. The program I just created - NONE of the images displayed, but all of them show the path that they were retrieved from. Any ideas? I have fixed in the past by REMOVEing the image and re-ADDing the image, but I get very tired of re-doing this activity so frequently. Thanks for any help.

    They will still work. But now you can move the images into comments if you so desire.


    The image becomes a part, you can link it and place it where you want. This works well to keep the file updated (changes are seen during execution) and the file can be used by multiple machines. If you don't link you'll have to redo it each time something needs changing (to the image).

    I was caught off guard when we bought the Discovery and found this option.
    It makes more sense than the old way. I still use that on my Mistral as it's running 3.2063 .
