Hi Tiemo,
I think that hiding the images is a good solution. Why isn't it a
satisfying answer? As you say yourself, the gray background is
actually there. Of course, you could report it as a bug to the QC.

Hello Mark and Richard,
yes, the cards background was explicit white. Meanwhile I created a new test

But you have many ways to achieve the goal:

Then:

I second Eric's suggestion. It also comes in handy for keeping track
of images/objects for different purposes, e.g. thumb1, main2,
preview3, temp4 etc.
Looping through and deleting all the 'temp' images then becomes very
easy.

First of all, restarting your machine is rarely, if ever, necessary
