Keisuke, Thank you! Your instructions worked well. One thing to note is that the first (only one so far) that I updated this way changed the icon. The name of the picture is "Separateur vertical Mac” and was a small solid grey vertical line. It is now a dotted line. No problem, but I will have to be careful if I find any more negative number resources.
