Change pictures location
« on: December 18, 2019, 05:07:50 AM »
Hello

I must change pictures location (same arborescence on same disk)
I tried a new scan, as long as rebuild catalog, fastidious.

What is the fine job ?
Thanks

Before :
Vaneau/soizic/A-JPG-LEGER

After:
Vaneau/soizic/SynologyDrive/A-JPEG-LEGER

Just drag and drop, same disk. SynologyDrive is just for synchronisation with my NAS

Is "SynologyDrive" a folder that your NAS watches and synchronizes but exists on your main hard drive?
Are you moving or copying images to that sub-tree?

Thanks, but there are two questions and one of them can't be answered with yes or no.

The SynologyDrive is a watched and synchronized folder.

Are you moving files to it, or are you copying files to it?

Thanks,

Yes it is on the Mac and The NAS synchronizes it

I moved files to it

I moved files to it

So the files are no longer in their existing location?

Were the files in their existing location known to your catalog?
