In Code View, you can also
Right-Click an image's filename and
View Image or
Open Tab for Image:
If you "Open Tab", it'll highlight the file in the Book Browser too, so you can easily know which one to rename:
(This is one thing Sigil does WAY better than Calibre's Editor. When you have a huge list of files+images, Sigil keeps the active one visible within Book Browser at all times.)
(And with drag/droppable tabs back in Sigil [yay!], it makes sorting through a mess of files like this much easier.
)

I agree though that syncing while clicking between Preview/Code View is... very subpar.
It's one of the handful of reasons why I much preferred Book View over Preview.

It's why it's always good to have discussions on these forums, then everyone puts their minds together and figures out the best ways and learns together.

Looks like it was just a ton of buried EXIF + XMP metadata (probably Photoshop bloat from Print in order to recreate the original high-resolution file). I don't know enough about image metadata to rip it out in a human-readable way.

Reminds me of a conversion I did years ago. It was hundreds of articles with an "end mark" or "tombstone" at the end ∎:
https://www.fonts.com/content/learni...yphs/end-marks
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tombstone_(typography)
Seems like it's a print-holdover thing...
Well, in the ebook, the conversion company decided to have microscopic-sized JPGs. Hundreds and hundreds of them... every article had its own "unique" black square.
