Hi Michael,

I'm quite sure that the "new graphics" are shown because of the new attributes. At least the attributes are displayed in FM (I had a look in the Structure View and also opened the Attribute window).
It is already the structured FM-document, I'm writing about here.
So I don't unterstand why the path to the external graphic could not be inserted in an attribute.
Also, what I don't understand is: Why does FM delete the existing attributes when I save my FM-document directly as xml?

I tried to convert the structured FM-document with a separate application just for converting. In the read/write rules for this application I have tried exactly the rule you suggested (and also a few alternatives).
If I choose "StructureTools > Utlities > Convert Docmunets to Structured Format" to convert the FM-document, the "old graphics" with the hidden path vanish and only the "new graphics" stay in the document.
-> The read/write rule does not help much here.
But I assumed as much as I was browsing the other topics in this forum.

I guess the only way to keep the graphics with the hidden path is to save the FM-document as xml.
So I have the choice between keeping my cross-refs and the note grpahics or keeping the old graphics. Am I right?

By the way: You are right. In our unstructured documents the note graphics are included by a Reference Page. But the not graphics contain text and as we want to keep our templated non-verbal, we decided to not insert the note graphics by a Reference Page anymore.
