Double-click the graphic in FrameMaker to launch your image editor and
look there. Else, maybe do a report on referenced graphics, such as an
index or toc of referenced graphics.

This GUI issue is a bug that continues to plague FrameMaker. The only
real way to avoid it is to keep your filenames and pathing reasonable.

Cheers,

Sean

How do I learn the full path of a referenced graphic
in Frame 6?

I have a document that has several graphics (104 of
them) that are imported by reference from a shortcut
on the original author's desktop to any of about 25
different network folders. The file name and the paths
are so long that in the object properties dialog box
the file name is listes as
<startofafoldername>...<last20orsocharacters>.jpg
