Hi,

Just learning the ropes of Sigil.
I had uploaded 3 images and appropriately linked them to their chapters.
Two days later, I happened to re-open those specific pages to find the images gone (broken). Blue box with 'X' in it.

Once those images are uploaded, are they a part of the file, or is it like a website where I need to create a folder on my local system called 'Images' to mirror the set-up in Sigil. - Could that be why they broke?

Also, I read Sigil supports SVG. I wouldn't be able to set the dimensions to my liking when calling an SVG file, right? Or would I? - Should I ensure the final SVG image is sized how I think it should appear @ 100%?

Finally, how do I package the final file to test on device? - Is it only the EPUB file I need? - What about the support images, if they indeed work by link association?

Thank you.
