Thanks for the link Paul. That was a good read. I did try to click through his 17 images, after first 4-5 the next click caused a system restart on my Mac. But I saw enough to appreciate his work.

Re: Stupid Lightroom Question
I don't think it's odd at all. For whatever solution I've come up with to do almost anything since I've known you, you've come up with a solution which is almost always the exact opposite. LOL! I use LR to work the organization of file on my hard drive for me automatically, and use IPTC information to establish categories, much of it automatically embedded into the metadata on import. If I then need files grouped by category (ie: by customer, or by job, or by project), I can find all the categories I want and move the files into such named directories inside LR efficiently and quickly, retaining the date organization .. or not .. according to my needs. Absolutely all of my original image file manipulations are on external volumes too, without exception. I use ONE working drive as fundamental repository, and two archive drives to secure and back that up ... period. This way I always know where everything in the working set, and the archive sets, is, primarily by date but also by subgroups in the file system as well as by metadata descriptors like keywords, camera type, etc. Constantly renaming and changing parts of the original file storage system externally is most likely why LR does what it does in your case. How you want to manage your workflow is your business, I know many different ways to do it. I do what I do because I find it most useful, outside of LR, to locate things by the dates I remember, not by whatever "category du jour" I dreamed up at the time I imported them. I also arranged this setup so that if I dumped LR tomorrow and moved to another image processing toolset, I could do so without any losses other than my image processing/rendering efforts on unfinished work … the IPTC metadata is readable by almost any good image management software, and I save that into the files every time I do an import. My goal in responding was to explore what MIGHT be the issue that you are running into, not to tell you how to run your workflow. I don't really care about that.

Long term is basically Year/month/shoot with shoot named yymmdd_mnemonic Under the shoot directory I may split things out as convenient, by person being photographed, set of photos in a panorama, type of airplane, then individual airplane. There may be multiple "shoot" directories that all start off with the same date: 240102 Or there may be several days in the same shoot directory with a date arbitrarily chosen for the naming. So, I basically import into ~/photos_fresh/shoot Organize the shoot directory/directories (if I import from different cameras into different directories) Do all of my processing, then I'd move the shoot directory tree: ~/photos_fresh/240102_example into its final resting place: /mnt/photo_bb/2024a/2401/240102_example > > When I take pictures around home, I import via LR directly to my internal > drive in the appropriate month’s directory. > > For me, I found that using named folders (e.g., Birds, Water Falls, baseball, > …) led me down too many rabbit holes, and I keep my folders by date.

Re: Stupid Lightroom Question
My basic file system: Folders = -Master for values of from 2002 to 2024. Subfolders are - 01Jan, - 02Feb, etc. I use a similar approach for image naming, renaming on import to mmdd-NNx.dng, building onto the in-camera naming sequence preceded by a camera designator such as K1a, K1b, 645Z... Space permitting, current year and previous year reside on my internal drive. Whenever I do a major import or editing session, I copy the -Master to a -Copy x, Copy x+1, etc. folder on 1 or two hard drives. If I go on a trip, current and prior year’s -Copy x+1 is copied to a 2 TB SSD to take along, both for en route backups from the laptop, but also in case I want to go back into something from a few months ago. Back home, I copy from the SSD to my internal drive in the appropriate - month folder(s) and then in LR I point at those and have LR Synch. When I take pictures around home, I import via LR directly to my internal drive in the appropriate month’s directory. For me, I found that using named folders (e.g., Birds, Water Falls, baseball, …) led me down too many rabbit holes, and I keep my folders by date. All other cataloging is done first via key wording on import, modified/extended key wording during review/editing, and then Catalogs for gathering images of some category or another. Annual favorites, Selections from November trip, Macro Flowers, … When I am working on a photo book, I drop selected images into catalogs/sub-catalogs in my preliminary preparation phase. One exception to my rule about sticking to folders: I do have a folder on my internal drive labeled Current Exports. Basically temporary storage for images to post as a PESO, GESO, on FB, or send in an email to friends. Such images typically have been given a reasonably high star rating in LR. I can easily delete or lose the Current Export images and re-locate them within LR by doing a screen by ratings. In your work flow, you mention “moving directories” from one place to another. Are you using the OS to do this? Or are you doing this within LR?

Hello Pentaxians Apologies if I mentioned this here on the list previously…I don’t think I have, so in for a penny… I’ve started a Youtube channel - Pentax content will be, ahem, very thin on the ground - but not impossible as I still have some Pentax lenses that I use for video occasionally, and I will feature them in an upcoming episode. Anyway - new YouTube channel started yesterday. If you’re venturing into the realms of video, this could be for you. A mixture of 'director's commentary' versions of sailing features I've made with British sailor and broadcaster Tom Cunliffe, and 'how-to' videos to improve your filmmaking skills. 5 new videos dropped January 1st, and there is a short intro video. New videos twice a month - have <>a look and if it's something you might be interested in, by all means do subscribe. https://www.youtube.com/@filmingandfettling Cheers, Cotty -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

They never change place on the Folders panel. Oddly, you and I seem to have different workflows. I import files into my "photos_fresh" directory on my SSD. I then organize them into topical subdirectories when processing. You aren't interested in the full directory tree methodology, but this way if Lightroom ever goes away, I have a nice logical way of finding things in whatever I use next. Once I have finished processing, or at least sorting, the files they get copied onto long term storage, an external case with my entire catalog on a couple of drives. And every so often, I do a "catchup", where I "export to catalog" all of the files I have edited since my last catchup, and then import those changes to my "everything" catalog. Since I mostly only use the external drives when I'm archiving files, or occasionally reworking old files, I don't usually even have it plugged in or connected to the trashcan, protecting it from anything that might go wrong with the computer. > > The reason for this is probably because, when I set them up, I drilled down > through the directory hierarchy on the volumes to the root of the photo > storage directory trees and then told LR to "Hide Parent Directory" on all > folder hierarchies above (or below, per your perspective) that point.

Hmm, interesting, it is convenient for me to know where certain directory trees are. Some years are on one of the external drives, other years on the other. There are other branches as well.

Like Godfrey, I have not seen this behavior in LR. I just looked, I right-clicked on some of my Folder and Drive names in the list, played a bit with the options such as Hide this Parent or Show Parent Folder… Those are possibly the settings that Godfrey suggested you might be looking for.

Re: Stupid Lightroom Question
Oh yes: I also have LR set to display only the directory name, not the entire directory path, in the Folders panel. That might be affecting dynamic ordering as well. I doubt this problem has anything to do with an engineering decision trying to "help you". It's probably just a consequence of the way LR parses the directory names and orders the tree dynamically. When you make changes that affect the whole tree, it changes the parsing and display calculations; the ordering likely bubbles up the most recent changes to the top of the list as a side effect.

Re: Stupid Lightroom Question
Hmm. I have, at present, three physical volumes comprising the media that LR Classic 13.1 has imported original files from in that list in the Folders panel. They never change place on the Folders panel. The reason for this is probably because, when I set them up, I drilled down through the directory hierarchy on the volumes to the root of the photo storage directory trees and then told LR to "Hide Parent Directory" on all folder hierarchies above (or below, per your perspective) that point. So I don't see, in LR, all the other directories on the volumes; only the entire directory of original image files starting at its local root. Any other directory/file manipulations on these volumes is therefore invisible to LR Classic, and cannot reorder the placement of the volumes in the Folders listing. There's no need to see the entire directory tree structure of the import volumes, only the directory trees from which you have imported files, which should always have a single root.. that's my logic behind setting it up this way. That's my conjecture anyway. Try it. :D G > On Jan 1, 2024, at 8:59 PM, Larry Colen wrote: > > > >> On Jan 1, 2024, at 8:55 PM, Larry Colen wrote: >> >> >> I'm running Lightroom Classic 13.
