Changed Linked image to embedded?

Anonymous — Thu, 24 Mar 2016 14:14:27 GMT

I am publishing many of my parts to the content center but cannot publish them because the decals on them used linked images instead of embedded. Is there an easy way for me to change these images to embedded or will I have to replace the images all over again making sure the link box isn't checked when placing the image file?

When you have the part open and you go to the Tools tab, is the Links button active?

If so, press this button and try to delete the linked file.

Hi,

if you place image file in to a location inventor is looking in for data it will not give you missing link error.

I had similar issue because I often forgot to uncheck link option when placing images.

In the end I decided to copy this image to a inventor folder it uses to look for data.
