Recently I've been going through all my multimedia photos to crop, rotate, and generally clean up their appearance. In doing so, I came across several documents that are no longer part of my main family file yet they remain in one of the linked paths and folders where all the other documents and photos are found by Legacy. Typically these have been things like marriage documents but later research determined that they were for a person with the identical name in the same area but not the person in my file. That marriage was deleted but due to human forgetfulness, the marriage document remained in the folder with all the other marriage documents.
Is there a way for Legacy to determine what files in a given folder are not linked anywhere in Legacy? I'm using v7.5 and am well familiar with the option to "Check All Media Locations" but this will make a list of MISSING files, and the same option can also unlink unreferenced Media FOLDERS. But what I want is an option to make a list of UNREFERENCED FILES found in any of the media locations. I'd be curious to know if v8 has this capability over v7.5. (Yeah, I'm getting close to making the switch.just a few more bug swats especially in the reports area and I jump in.)
