In fact, the image field can be multiple, and is set in the view to show 1 image. I added a dump of $view->fields, and it's empty. So if I include the image for display, it shows when I print $content, even though I've created $content without explicitly including it in the statement.
Sorry, I typo'd. $view->field[...]
Thanks, Earl ... what a difference an 's' makes! I found that in the field, there is a [last_rendered] which has the image. So, for my next clueless act, here is the follow-on to this, which is even more confusing to me. This is a grid display. Only one of the nodes on the first page actually -has- an image, and it is the final cell. If I create views-view-field--product-catalog--page--field-image-cache-fid.tpl.php and in it, display the nid, I only get the display once, for the node with the image, not for any of the other cells. I infer from this that the template isn't used if there is no image, which makes sense. However, on the page, the cells for which there is no image end up displaying the alt text. What would the template file name need to be so that if I displayed the nid it would display it for all those other cells - the template in which I can set $output to '' to -not- print the alt text?
