Sigil 1.30 32 Bit - Cover and SVG Images path

[Thomas_AR]

Hi folks,
just installed the above mentioned version on my Windows 10 and noticed, that the "Insert cover" function inserts the image with "xlink:href="Ops/cover.jpg".
In older Versions it was "xlink:href="../Images/cover.jpg".

Now Ops path, before Image path.
Same with the SVG-Insert plugin (newest).

Is that intentional or a bug of some kind as it happens also in the TOC.

Thanks
Thomas

Did you use the Restructure Epub to Sigil Norm from the Tools menu before any of those operations? For quite a while now, Sigil has not automatically changed the structure of an epub to match it's norm when the epub is opened.

Yep. Sigil uses an epub's existing structure now. You probably just ran into an epub that uses a slightly different structure. The inserted cover still works, though, right?

And as mentioned: you can always run the Restructure to Sigil Norm toll if you'd rather see the traditional paths.

It happens only sometimes when i edit a new converted epub; converted from Atlantis.
Strange, but with the function "Restructure to Sigil Norm" (which i wasn't aware off) this can be solved easily.
I will keep an eye on that.
..and yes the inserted cover still works.

Thanks for the hint

Just for the record: there's nothing to actually "solve" per se. It's not broken. The epub will function just fine. All epubs don't need to be forced into Sigil's traditional structure But we made sure you could standardize them if desired.
