Clipart paths

I believe the location of the ClipArt files is stored in the Windows Registry.

Perhaps the program looks there first.

Further: I'm not sure how you installed the included ClipArt (or if you are using ClipArt from a physical CD).

In my own case (on a Windows 7/64 system) I simply used the download version (i.e., no CD) and accepted the various defaults. I never changed the file location setting in Tools, Settings, Files, Graphic (tab).

On the other hand, if you are trying to copy all graphics from a CD to a hard drive: I have an old tip on my site from Charles Rossiter (Corel C_Tech volunteer) that has worked in earlier versions of WordPerfect. It was posted by Charles when users wanted to put the entire library of graphics that was included on CD#2 onto their hard drive -- but it might have a clue about what to do with the limited catalog that WPX6 installs: http://wptoolbox.com/tips/GraphicsTips.html#installclipart

I haven't need to use it myself, and it might only offer a clue -- so Your Mileage May Vary, as they say. (Be aware of the usual warnings and cautions about editing the Registry. Search the Microsoft site if you need more information. You should also provide your version of Windows, since recent versions are quite a bit different from, say, Windows XP. )

Hopefully someone from Corel will see this thread and provide more precise and up-to-date information for us.

My C: drive is a SSD so I install most of my apps to the D: drive, WorkdPerfect Office X6 included. When I installed WPX6's included clipart, I put it on my data drive E: in the CorelClipart folder. In WP's Files Settings I set the graphics folder to E:/CorelClipart..

When I try to insert a clipart image, all the images in the Scrapbook have a red X on them . When I select one, I'm told "The file doesn't exist: d:\Program Files (x86)\Core\Wordperfect Office X6\Graphics\Clipart\folder\image.wpg"

WP keeps trying to find the clipart in a subfolder below the program's folder on the D: drive instead of in E:\CorelClipart where I told it to look in the File Settings. What's more, there's no option n the Scrapbook to change the folder path.

How do I convince WP to look in E:\CorelClipart?

YES!!! I have this same issue. WP wants to look for clipart images in a file location that does not exist. The location it reports in the error message is the proper location for clipart  (in Program Files (X86) ), appended to which, however, is a link to "C:\Graphics\Clipart." The final merged product of those two locations is an incomprehensible mess. (By the way, there is no such location as "C:\Graphics\Clipart" on my HDD).

Please help!
