Hiding specific files
« on: December 19, 2023, 05:39:31 AM »
Hi,
My inquire is about hiding certain files in the PM thumbnail view. I have files like .dop or .xmp displaying with thumbnails.
There is a way to hide those files?
Thanks for helping, Leo

Just go to the View menu and uncheck the option Unknown Files as Proxies. I see from your screen shot you have DNG files with an associated XMP sidecar file.  Photo Mechanic will only read and updated embedded metadata in DNG files.

Best regards,

Thank you very much, Bob.
About xmp I have to clean them, the ones related with dng. I have many others associated to NEF. and a lot of DOP files related to DxO Photolab, but hiding is already a good thing.
Best regards, Leo
