Dear Andreas,

I have run into a small trouble spot that is reproduceable:

- assign an image to an object, and save the *.kpm-file.
- delete the image from the file system.
- assign a new image to the above object, and save the *.kpm-file. You may =

close the application, but it does not make a difference.
- try to render the texture. It should be OK.
- try to render the scene. This fails, and the output from POV-Ray will poi=
nt =

to the missing original picture.

The solution is to recreate the path and image name/image type which POV-Ra=
y =

complains about, then save the scene again, and render the scene. This time =

the new image will be chosen.

I tried to look inside my *.kpm file, but without success. I wonder if you =

have considered a regular ZIP-file as a container format, like compressed S=
VG =

and OpenOffice does already?

The bug in question is filed as #112148 at bugs.kde.org, but I thought the =

solution might be of interest to the list archive.

Yours sincerely,
Haakon Meland Eriksen
