[Synchronization in Smartedit] New images are removed if changes are done in online catalog

[swollmershaeuser]

Hello,

we run into a problem when we synchronize our content catalog.
Steps to reproduce:

1. Chose an already synchronized CmsImageComponent from your online catalog in Smartedit
2. remove the image and create a new image (upload new picture)
3. synchronize the catalog

the image from the online CmsImageComponent is removed. Why is this the case? Have we something misconfigured?

I would have expected, that either the online version will just be replaced with the staged one or just nothing happens. But just removing the image seems to be a bug?

Kind regards

Sven

Sync jobs for content catalogs are typically created with removeMissingItems=true:

-> Elements that only exist in the target catalog version are automatically removed.

Thanks for your answer. But i think this option has much more impact than just on the images. I don't know if this does what we want.
