Graphics not displaying when opening MF2017 documents in FM2019

We've recently upgraded to MF2019 (64-bit) from FM2017. Whenever we open a FM2017 document in FM2019, none of the graphics are displayed. We are on v 15.0.5.383 (our IT is yet to install Update 6).

All graphics are added by referenced using a mapped drive.

    Have you checked View > Options?

    On my local PC running FM (accessing the files via the network mapped drive), they show up. On the other PC running FM (being a Terminal Server accessing the files via the same network mapped drive), they don't. Both have the same options selected under View > Options.

    What kind of graphics are we talking about? EPS, TIFF, PNG ?

    I am not entirely sure... are you getting "Missing files" alerts..?

    They're a mixture of TIF and PNG files. No 'missing files' alerts appear. When I right-click where the image is supposed to be and select Object Properties, it does show the correct properties with the file path correct.

    Try re-importing one of the pictures, and check what settings you have in Preferences  regarding "Save Image with Frameimage". I suspect, that if you re-import the image, with "FrameImage" turned off, the image will show up correctly, but I am not sure. Worth a try though.
