Full Sync
« on: December 16, 2022, 04:01:44 AM »
Hi,

it is possible to introduce another sync variant:
When I use Full Sync missing files are marked but not removed.
Often I do not work in PM alone on the content of folders. Files are moved, deleted or added somewhere else.
Then back in PM I want to get exactly the current state with a sync command without having to, for example, first select and remove the missing files in the collection.
I found a old feature request here http://forums.camerabits.com/index.php?topic=14688.msg72318 but no other comment.

Thanks in advance
Thomas

Express your support for that feature request.  It certainly can be implemented as an option.

Yeah, this would be great!  I haven't been using it long but keep running into the problem of "dead" image links that are cumbersome to remove.
