The media is linked to the event - indirectly.  Unfortunately, Media Center is 
not programmed to find those links, though it certainly could, and in my 
opinion should show them when *All pictures or an Event that links to them is 
selected.  Perhaps should have an additional selection of *Source Pictures.

They are accessible, of course, through the Sources icon, by then selecting the 
detail connected to an event, but it is logical to also have them accessible 
through the media icon.

Subject: [LegacyUG] Linking media to source citations

Am I right in thinking that media linking is, for want of a better word, not 
transitive. An image linked to a source citation then the source cited for an 
event does not result in the image being linked to the event.

A typical situation: I have a census image sheet which I transcribe and cite as 
a source for a census event and I link the image to the citation. This does not 
show up in the media gallery of the individual as an event picture. If I link 
the image to the event itself then it does show up.

So my question is - have I missed a setting which allows the above scenario to 
link an image to an event via a citation or is it necessary for me to link to 
both the citation and the event?

David
