Filenames

Picture filenames incorporate the database reference and version number (PVNO attribute) of the picture element. Picture file names have the form:

M46-2107-20-13

where the first two numbers are the database reference of the picture element. The third number is the value of the EXFI attribute (which is normally the database/extract file number at the time the picture was saved). The final number is the picture version number (PVNO attribute). The number is incremented every time the picture is modified.

Only those picture elements that can include design graphics (that is SHEEs and OVERs) have picture files. The graphics for other picture elements (LALBs or BACKs) are created when required.
