Finding graphics folder for a book

Hello,

I need to find the folder where the graphic files are stored for a certain book.

For example, the book location is: \pathToBook\myBook.book and imported graphic files reside in the "Images" folder as in: \pathToBook\Images\.

I need to work on legacy books where this folder can be either "Images", "Illustrations", "Resources", "References", "XX", etc.

I'm thinking on parsing each component on the book and look for oGraphic.InsetFile for each imported and look for commonalities.

Do you think this is a good approach?

Is there a way to create an LOR for "Imported Graphics" with code? And, read the path to the file from there...

Thanks in advance!

I would probably loop through all of the files in the book, and check the path on each Inset. You could compile an array of unique paths and then print that array to the Console.
