Chapter 5: Painting And Image Editing
To re-link a proxy:
If you are using the Check Proxies command and Canvas finds an unlinked proxy, you can link the
proxy to an image file.
1. After Canvas identifies an unlinked proxy, click Fix in the message box.
2. In the Proxy Info dialog box, do one of the following:
Click OK to skip the proxy and continues checking other proxies.
Click Cancel to end the check.
3. Click File in the Proxy Info dialog box.
4. In the dialog box, select an image file to link to the proxy, and then click Open. Canvas
returns to the Proxy Info dialog box, which shows the path to the linked image file.
5. Click OK. Canvas closes the Proxy Info dialog box and continues to check for unlinked
proxies.
6. If Canvas finds another unlinked proxy in the current document, Canvas again selects the
unlinked proxy and displays a message that the proxy has a problem. Repeat the procedure
from Step 1 above to re-link unlinked proxies that Canvas selects.
When Canvas doesn’t find any unlinked proxies, it ends the Check Proxies procedure and returns to
the document.
To change the file linked to a proxy:
Use the following procedure to link a proxy to a different image file.
1. Select the proxy object.
2. Choose Image | Proxy | Proxy Info.
3. In the Proxy Info dialog box, click File.
4. In the dialog box, select the image file you want linked to the proxy and click Open.
5. In the Proxy Info dialog box, review the new path and the name of the linked image file, then
click OK.
Updating proxies
Use the Update Proxies command to update all proxies in a document so they match the image data in
their linked image file.
