Re: [LegacyUG] File problems

Pat, There may be only 25 more to go but they (or others you've already checked) may have been attached to more than one place. Next time you decide to change filenames, do them as much as possible in the Picture Centre. You can only change image names there. That way Legacy corrects the

Well, what I don't understand is this: As I said, I have been going thru my media files and changing the names of some of them to improve consistency and make finding what I want easier. So then of course I had to change the file names in Legacy in order to retrieve them. So I had changed the

Re: [LegacyUG] File problems

From within the program, you can see - I think it's the last 10 - recently opened files by clicking the Big L in the top left corner of the program window. If it's not a big L you'll have a System Ribbon Tab - has the same items. Which you have depends on the Ribbon style you're using. If you

Replying to Gene, Thank you for the extra information. I agree with what you say concerning backups, although I do not have more than the 1 extra external hard drive at present, 1 other has copies of files. I have a 3Tb one and it is encrypted - it took me a while to be persuaded to get the NAS

Jenny, Thanks for your reply! I copy and paste, then delete extraneous spaces. If the original text is "linear"; i.e. not in a column, I will place Returns where appropriate to make it columnar. If the original is already columnar, I copy and paste, then delete the extraneous spaces. However, in

This would be solved with a simple option to add a selected color to a tree, and another to a different tree, which would help me immensely. However, Tagging will do the trick but its very easy to muck up. Ian On Sat, Nov 26, 2016 at 2:37 AM, Elizabeth Lindsay
