Hi Tim.

I have a TImage control with the ImageName property set. I notice that the
associated image file is included in the project's output directory rather
than output\images.

Is there a reason for this?

If this is working as designed then what is the purpose of the images
folder?

I ask because it seems neater to keep all images used by the project in a
single location (e.g. output\images).

Thanks.

The images output folder is for *theme* images, which currently aren't used.
Please see the Project Options topic in the manual:

under "Compilation".

Yes, but all URLs are relative to the application loader HTML URL, not the
\images sub-directory, so to have the URL properties work correctly, they
must be relative to the base URL.
