subimport and includegraphics compatibility issue











up vote

I am trying to subimport a content.tex document into a larger thesis.tex document. All works well with importing text and tikz files, but I am getting the following error when trying to import includegraphics{picture.png} which is called from the content.tex file.



Unable to load picture or PDF file


I've looked at a number of SO answers, but can't find anyone else who is having this problem.



I think that the problem might be coming from the fact that my includegraphics{} call is trying to find a file that is in a different directory than that which contains my content.tex. Specifically, I use the .. convention to navigate to a different directory, i.e. includegraphics{../../figs/picture.png}.



Any thoughts would be most appreciated.

          subimport doesn't update includegraphics, and the path is relative to the master .tex rather then the nested imported file.
