→Connecting to the example Media Objects
There are seven example Media Objects (images in JPEG and PNG file format) distributed with the '''example.gramps''' tree. The filepaths specified in the tree use a relative media path as the starting point (the {{man label|Base media path:}}). The default directory (defined in the Preferences) uses a different starting point.
So these images won't be locatable until the media path has been re-defined. And the Preview thumbnails will display 'broken link' icon of a box with a red 'x'.( See: User manual section [[Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Settings#Missing_Media_Objects_.27broken_link.27_icon_of_a_box_with_a_red_.27x.27|Missing Media Objects 'broken link' icon of a box with a red 'x']]
The media path can be reset now or if starting to experiment with images.
