Hi
I don't know where else to write this, so hopefully here is ok for the time being? I'm the same as PhotogJC1 - I lament the apparent loss of being able to expand the contents of hard drives in the navigator. I apologise I can't find where explanatory details have been given about this feature loss.
1. Am I allowed to ask, please why this feature has been removed?
2. I'd like to briefly outline why the hard drive expansion, and associated menu options, was so vaulable to me. If you import pics into Lightroom, I don't think you can get Lightroom to only import images of a particular star rating, e.g., 5 star images only. So, it was previously good to be able to (in PM):
- right click where you were in the folder tree in the navigator, select, "create new folder inside this folder"
- create a new folder for just the star rating you wanted to separate out
- drag only the images having the desired star rating into their own new separate folder
- then ask LR to import all the images from that new folder.
It seems that I now have to do most of the above in the operating system, and can no longer do it in the Navigator in the latest version of PM? I know I could create new folders in the OS and then use PM's copy / move command, but this is not as elegant in my humble opinion. Pending the fact that I haven't found the explanatory notes about this loss (sorry), I find the feature loss to be a massive dissapointment.
If someone could please shed more light on this I would be grateful, and perhaps a little less upset than I am currently.
Thanks
Sincerely
Des
