ePub to mobi via KindleGen has no pop-up menu

AFAIK, there isn't a way to specify due to a difference in how KF7 and KF8 mobi files are built by KindleGen.

You know it's hard to control if a READER is using KF7 or KF8 so it just makes more sense to have the HTML TOC and NCX contain the same entries rather than having diminished usability of the TOC for a reader using the KF7 one.

I've seen this fix some subtle problems with the behavior of some floating elements near the tops of pages in some of my books. It probably won't help in your case, given that you're dealing with an image rather than a glyph, but if it does, let me know.

Well, I haven't quite tried it THAT way, but, hell...at this point, I'd join a cult and sacrifice goats (okay...that part is a lie) if it helped. I've been cursing this book for bloody days. I'll try it.

As always, thanks. And for anyone else out there: even if you think your idea is wacky, or that I've "probably" tried it--never hesitate to speak up. I'm always appreciative of input, and newbs coming along may NOT know some of the tricks--so all that input has value. ;-)
