Linked Pictures

Post by mandrael »

Is it possible to insert pictures, but not integrate them in the document?:

Task:
*Picture in same Directory (-> relative link)
*Picture in Internet - update when online and document is opening.

second task: Atlants is already able to import Pictures from Web by inserting the http-adress into "Filename-field". Textmaker 2005 beta not.

Currently it is not possible. Actually the new version of Atlantis does a reverse thing. RTFs and DOCs can include the "INCLUDEPICTURE" fields. They are meant to work exactly as you want. But unfortunately the same fields are used by MS Internet Explorer when it places information onto the clipboard. When you copy a fragment of a Web page to the clipboard in MS Internet Explorer, it does not place actual pictures but only their addresses coded through these "INCLUDEPICTURE" fields. Consequently you could not see these pictures when paste the clipboard contents to Atlantis. This is undesired in a vast majority of cases. This is why the new version of Atlantis resolves the "INCLUDEPICTURE" fields when you paste to Atlantis by downloading actual pictures from the Web, or by retrieving them from your disk.
