You're right, I've completely missed it.
Absolute paths are always problematic, no exceptions 😉.
Will add a selection dialog to allow both relative and absolute paths...

Could you please test the attached test version and confirm that it works as expected?
If so, I'll release a final version; otherwise I'm all ears for suggestions...
UPDATE: version 1.6.0 released, attachment removed!

thanks and all the best, mike
PS not important but the bitmaps remain locked until the app is closed - many apps do this, especially micro$oft!

Yes, sadly all the .NET applications have this "bug".
A workaround could be to load image file content in memory, then use that memory stream as a source for the bitmap control... but this could be a great waste of RAM in case of pages with lot of images...
I've just released the official 1.6.0 version, thanks again for your report 😉.
