in previous versions of coreldraw, updating externally linked image/s is as easy as selecting the linked image/s in Link Manager, then pressing Update the selected out of date object.
however, i cant seem to do this anymore in x5. do i really have to update the linked images 1 by 1?
is there a way i can update linked images like on the previous version of coreldraw, ie x4?

there is different docker:
the new links and bookmarks docker let me update just 1 link at a time.
the old link manager docker let me update selected links and update them simultaneously.
is there any way i could select and update multiple links in x5?
if i select only 1 link, there's no problem:
if i select more than 1 link, the update button is not available.

Hi.
I didn't test this but hopefully it should work for you.
It will update links in all bitmaps on page.

Sub updateLinks() Dim s As Shape, sr As ShapeRange Set sr = ActivePage.Shapes.FindShapes(, cdrBitmapShape) For Each s In sr If s.Bitmap.ExternallyLinked Then s.Bitmap.UpdateLink End If Next sEnd Sub

Hi.,
You can assign a shortcut to it. See this page. Scroll down to the "How do you use the code" part.
