Image Filename FAIL v21 + Squishy/Squashy SOLVED

[Acorn]

Dear Xara..

I have already reported the usage of Image Filename is flawed and its simplest use results in a FAIL.

Xara - Image Filename FAIL.xar


It has far, far greater issues than just this. The fairest way to put it is it keeps the same Image Filename when you just move the image!

You cannot go on adding new features that just do not work properly.

In the above XAR file, if the make the slightest alteration, the associated Placeholders FAIL to render any longer.

However, I felt it useful to demonstrate their use with a solution that overcomes your earlier FAIL with the Squishy Squashy Saga for image rendering.

Xara - Squishy Squashy for Images.xar

This second file were created for v15.0 and earlier to when you decided to lock the aspect ratio of images (and text) as you knew best.
This problem and your facile solution with "Smart transform" still confused users.
