Location of new text-to-image generated images

[uptitle]

I tried the new text-to-image function to generate some backgrounds in my design. Now I opened the file on another computer and had to realize, that InDesign saved the files to the local "Documents" folder on my machine. Is that intended behaviour?

I think it should have embedded them or at least save it to a subfolder near my .indd file.

I could not find any options to change that behaviour. Am I missing something? If I have to move them manually every time I create an image, I will definitely sometimes forget ...

Select the AI generated image.

Click on Links panel menu button > Utilities > Copy Links To > and choose your Links local folder (which is generally under the document folder). Now you really have the AI-generated graphic image.

Thanks, yes. I know about that, but having to do so every time seems to be a very error prone workflow. It would be much better to have an option to not have InDesign place them anywhere on your system drive by default.

It's a brand new feature with only some rather basic customization options so far.
