Finding empty folders using Mac
« on: December 17, 2021, 03:27:12 AM »
Does anyone know of a way to find empty folders while using PM+?

I can do the same using the iMac system but wondered if it is possible to do the same while I am using PM+

Thanks

It's not possible.  The Catalog system does not track folders directly.  Only folders that have images that have been added to a catalog are known to the Catalog system.

Thanks for the prompt response Kirk.

Inclusion in a future update?

Have a nice holiday.

Unlikely.  It's just not how the system works.  It could be added to a report that Scan to Catalog or Catalog Sync generates, but there would never be a Filter, Browse, or Search option that would 'find' empty folders.
