Listing, verifying status of, and updating pictures
The Usage feature (Utilities menu) lets you keep track of all your imported
pictures. To use this feature, choose Utilities > Usage, then click Pictures to
display the Pictures pane.
The Show button displays the selected picture in the layout.
The Update button lets you relink to another image or update the missing and
modified pictures. To update modified pictures without a confirmation alert,
Option+click/Alt+click the Update button.
Specifying background colors for pictures
To increase your design options with pictures, you can modify box color, picture
color, and picture background color. See “Coloring and shading pictures” for more
information.
For gray pixels, the picture color and picture background color are mixed. ●
If you specify different opacities for the picture color or picture background ●
color, the colors will interact with each other and the box color.

Grayscale and 1-bit images only: When you open a project from a previous
version of QuarkXPress, the box color is mapped to the picture background color
so the picture looks the same.
Maintaining picture attributes
When you import a picture into a picture box — whether or not the picture box
already contains a picture — you can retain all picture attributes. For example, if
an empty picture box in a template specifies that the picture should be scaled
50% and rotated 90 degrees, you can import a new picture and those attributes
are automatically applied.
To import a picture and retain the attributes specified for the box and/or the
existing picture, check Maintain Picture Attributes in the Import dialog box (File
menu).
