Hello,

first of all, many thanks for developing and maintaining Pureref, I had been looking for a "digital desktop" to arrange and categorize scientific images and Purerefworks perfectly so far!

I have two questions:
1) I couldn't find exactly this question in the forum, apologies if I missed it. I have categorized (i.e. arranged into groups) hundreds of images, but had accidentally not unchecked the "Embed local images in save file" option, which I assumed was the default behaviour. Is there a way to "unembed" them to not have local copies of all images in the .pur file? They were all added through "File > Open Images" in case this matters and the local path is preserved in the .pur file. My goal is to preserve the relative arrangement of images, but create a version that has all images linked rather than embedded.
2) Is it possible to obtain the file names of a selection of images? I did not see an option to do that, it would be extremely helpful.

Thanks very much!

1. We've just released a beta version of PureRef 2.1.0 which includes a new image management tool that you can use to edit the embedded state of images, read more here. Please give it a try and let us know if it helps!

2. There's no utility to copy multiple at the same time, but you can use the Coordinate picker to see and copy sources for single images. You can also see sources in the new image management tool or on an items tooltip in the Hierarchy view.
