I guess I've been lucky for a while--I harp on all my users to use OLE objects. I knew Insert>Pictures existed, but never used it.

My current company used the RTF Importer to import a document. Unlike a Word export, the RTF Import does not put pictures in as OLE objects, but rather as Pictures.

So someone asked me how to update a picture. I looked like an idiot trying to figure out why I couldn't click the picture.

Of course I figured out how to replace the picture, but why on earth does the DOORS GUI not give an option to delete a picture outright? There's a DXL function for it, but not a GUI function. And this is basic functionality.

I will be submitting an enhancement request. I'm just wondering how such an expensive commercial product lacks these basic GUI fundamentals.

By the way, I don't expect anyone to actually answer my question the way it's phrased. I'm just venting.
