How Does one know how many times a photo has been used while making a Blurb book? I understand it should be indicated in the film strip view, however, it does not appear there. Please provide advice.

    They should show up in 2015.7 (you should update to 2015.8).   The reason I asked is I think??? this feature was added to the book module in one of the versions.  I may be wrong.  Could you post a screenshot of your film strip similar to the one wobertc posted?  There are reports of a glitch where the top of the thumbnails disappear which would hide the page count icon.  See here    Lightroom filmstrip images are too big

    The "Times a photo used" is shown on the filmstrip above the thumbnail. (Not aware of version specifics. I am CC2015.8

    And if you click the mouse cursor on the number it will highlight (yellow) the pages in the book where the photo is used.
