Again, forgive me but I was ‘browsing’ the ref manual yesterday and came across several things I didn’t understand, in doc’ setup there’s a thousands or millions of colours box.
Is this decision site-wide or is it possible to pick particularly important images that should look good and use ‘thousands’ for less important ones ?

This has more to do with the file size of your Freeway document than
anything else. Whenever you place a graphic on a page, Freeway
creates a cache version of that image to display on screen. This is
known as a proxy, and it makes Freeway much much faster to work with.
This preference you spotted lets you choose between 16-bit (thousands
of colors ) and 24 bit (millions of colors ) for that proxy. That’s
all it does, and it does not affect your published site in any way.
Where this impacts your Freeway document is that those proxy images
are stored within the Freeway document itself. So if you have a lot
of images on your site, then you can quickly get to a really large
Freeway file size. Again, this does not reflect on the final size of
your site, but it does impact your file opening and saving times,
particularly on a slower Mac.

Thanks Walter, so could I, in general terms set it at millions (with a limited number of images) or until things started to drag ?
Thanks again for your help roger
