The question asked is:
> Do you have a c:\Legacy_Archive\Pictures folder that mirrors your >
c:\Legacy\Pictures folder? The difference being large-TIFs in the > archive
and small-JPGs for use by Legacy?
People do things many different ways. The above is fine and simple to do.
When you want to switch to the c:\Legacy_Archives\ it's real easy with
this little trick.
1. From the main Legacy menu select Search -> Search and Replace.
2. From the Search and replace window fill in these values:
Find where: Lists-Picture Paths
Find what: c:\Legacy\
Replacement text: c:\Legacy_Archive\
How to Find section
- uncheck Find whole word only box
- uncheck Match case box
- select the option Starts with
How to Replace section
- select the Replace only found text with replacement text
The above will work down the list of all the multimedia paths shown if you
go to Options -> Customize -> Locations tab -> and click the View Current
List of Multimedia Locations button. Another way it to change each path in
this list one at a time which is easy if it's just a couple but if you have
hundreds of sub folders then the search and replace works great.
