LR 5.2 Import directory tree

Guys,
is it just me or is there no setting in LR that forces it to "remember" the last directory files were imported from?
I am currently reorganising my catalogs and also importing a whole bunch of new files. It really slows the work flow down if you have to click through the directory tree over and over again... I have a 2TB hard drive dedicated to my photos and drawings, with a highly structured directory tree.

Lr doesn't remember last folder used but doesn have the facility to importing directly into a specific folder. This is achieved by right clicking on the destination folder in Folder panel then chossing Import to this folder... from context menu (screenshot below). The Lr team can be contacted at http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/products/photoshop_family_photoshop_lightro om
I don't know anything about Google+

  • Referenced photo directory tree - refresh import?

    Okay, maybe I need to completely change the way I do things, but I can't figure this out.
    I just did a full import of a multi-level directory tree into Aperature, and it works great (although it took a while). There are multiple levels, and thousands of photos. They are stored on a NAS on an NFS share.
    Photos can be added to the NAS from lots of places, including a PC or another Mac.
    What I want to be able to do, manually or automatically, is update Aperture with new photos. Auto seems unlikely, but manual seems like it should be possible.
    The problem is, it always imports everything again. I've tried reimporting the directory at the top level, and Aperture creates a second tree with a "(1)" after it, rather than updating the original. I've tried dragging all the files from the NAS into Aperture, but it imports all duplicates, and they are no longer by reference. I've tried importing files, but the weird interface that pops up doesn't show NFS mounts or support soft-links.
    Any ideas? Am I missing something obvious here?
    Thanks in advance for any help!
    -Mark

    Edit: I guess every import is a project. I think the issue is that this only works at the lowest level project. So, if I have "/Photos/Husband/Year 1/2010-07-30 - Party", if I try a reimport at, for example, "Husband", it duplicates everything?
    Edit again: Nope, I just added a few new pictures to an existing lowest level folder, and it added only the new pictures, but added a new project with a (1) after it. In the above example, it created a "/Photos/Husband/Year 1/2010-07-30 - Party (1)" project in Aperture with just the new photos.
    What the heck?

  • Method for copying a directory tree from production server to test server

    I have DSEE 6.3 running on Solaris 10 (servers A, B & C are multi-mastered and replicating successfully) in production. I have the same arrangement on a test set of servers (D, E, F). Could someone explain what is the best method for zapping the entire directory tree on test servers D, E, F ... and creating a complete copy of the tree on production servers A, B, C ... and then loading that copy on test servers D, E, F?
    Thanks very much!

  • Best practice for designing a directory tree

    Hello all,
    I wanted to know what you all think about what is the best way to design a directory tree. Again it seems to me that experience makes the man perfect and I wanted to know what you all think about how to design directory tree model.
    Here is my view; I believe that keeping at least Users/ Employee information flat make more sense to me. I know it’s a good idea that one should consider an organizational hierarchy when designing a tree. But there seems to be some problem too. If employee moves from one department to another within the same organization then directory administrator has to change the location/department of the user. However, if all users are under the same namespace i.e. ou=Users, administrator does not have to change or move users location in the directory to another location.
    Also, while designing a directory there could be several hierarchy, one is organizational hierarchy another could be organizing user info based on job roles i.e. CEO->VPs-Managers->Consultant.... and so on so. So which one should consider. So by considering ou=Users namespace, we are avoiding risk on favoring one type of hierarchy.
    The trade-off in using ou=Users a flat namespace is that browsing of the directory looks less interesting.
    Anyway, this is my view, I would like to know your views too and hope this thread will help other in building their own directory Tree.
    Thanks
    Syed Suhail Ahmad

    Honestly it really depends on what you need your system to do and how you want to handle administration. I have read the argument about keeping things simple with using ou=USERS and seems like the best situation for administration purposes. Currently my client is wanting all identity management to be handled in OID so I am in the process of doing our hierarchy also. I still have to explore the abilities of OID to see how I can set things up.
    There are a few good books and websites that are good for referencing ldap. One book I use is LDAP Programming, Management, and Integration by Donley. For websites, just search on google or check out www.ldapguru.com or www.openldap.org(possibly).
    Hope this helps a little. I honestly can speak on the best way since I haven't implemented my own yet nor do I think one way will always be best for every situation.

  • Acroread 9.1.0 reads the full directory tree /usr/share/fonts

    Hi,
    I was wondering why the startup time of acroread is that high on my system (Debian 5.0). I have found out using strace that acroread reads the full content of the /usr/share/fonts/ directory tree (more than 4000 files) during startup in a quite inefficient way.
    First question: why does it read /usr/share/fonts during startup at all and is there a way to disable that behaviour?
    Second question follows: the ext3 requires that an application reading the full content of a directory should sort the file list numerically by inode number before opening the files. It is explained in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=417 why the application should be fixed and not the kernel. Can acroread be changed to qsort() the file list between the calls of readdir() and open()?
    Cheers,
    Torsten

    Hello Torsten,
    Thanks for reporting the issue. Could you please let us know if you are opening acroread with a file(either by double clicking on it or giving it as a parameter to acroread). If yes, could you please see if launch time is still high when you do not open a file(launch acroread by clicking on the Desktop icon or launch it from console). Also, it would be helpful if you can mail the strace output to sanika at adobe dot com.
    As for reading the location, it is one of the standard font locations mentioned in /etc/fonts/fonts.conf. If you do not want acroread to use these fonts, you can set ACRO_DISABLE_FONT_CONFIG to 1 on console.
    If you do not want to set this variable every time you launch reader, you can search for "ACRO_DISABLE_FONT_CONFIG" in the launch script, uncomment the relevant section and save the script.
    However, I should warn you that Reader would not be able to use these fonts to display PDFs(substitute fonts would be used instead).
    Sincerely,
    Sanika

  • Transfer of all files in a directory tree using FTP adapter?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a solution to transfer a whole directory tree, including the content, from one location to another using the FTP adapter.
    Is there an easy way to accomplish this?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Sigrid

    Hi Sigrid,
    I'm just wondering on the need to do that using SOA. Is it a regular transfer or one time?
    There's a way to move a single file from one FTP location to another on the same or different FTP server (link to the cases). But in order to move all the files in a directory, you'll have to loop this. The high level steps will be:
    - List all the files recursively that are present in your directory using File List operation
    - Implement the MOVE file operation (or COPY operation) of the FTP Adapter
    - Invoke this MOVE operation in a while loop and pass the file names, as gathered from the File List operation, one by one to MOVE operation
    You can also use single Java Embedding activity and call a Java class that does the File Transfer but depends on your requirements.
    Let us know how you get along.

  • Creating a directory tree

    Hello
    I am a newbe in java/jsp and i want to create a session java bean which can contain the structure of a directory tree. Like the one of windows explorer. I am having a java been containig the cuurent state of the tree. Should thid bean be a vector of vectors of vectors or is there a better way to store the trees current structure. And if i make it like vector of vectors will i be able to iterate the multidimansional vectors with jsp tags??
    Any ideas on how to make the file tree?
    Thnx for any tip!

    You can use the JSP Tree Tag I have developed. This helps you both structuring the tree model itself + it takes care of displaying the tree in a nice way. You can change all HTML code used to display the tree. Also you can build trees dynamically instead of just displaying static trees. Take a look at it here:

  • CDIR  is a DDIC structure  used in the IMPORT  DIRECTORY

    CDIR  is a DDIC structure  used in the IMPORT  DIRECTORY statement—my question is is it usqable for all cluster databases we make indeoendently apart from INDX or just for INDX

    I have no real details, but based on your question I am guessing Thunderbird does not check the drive letter only the path. so H:\Stuff and G:\Stuff would be the same thing. Try a change to the actual folder names.

  • Msg server implementation with change in directory tree strcucture

    Hello all,
    Our organization is using directory server 5.1 and messaging server5.2.Our company is going for a change of directory tree structure.Can anybody please tell me whether for this change of directory tree structure we will have to again go for a reinstall of our messaging servers.Is there a way by which present messaging servers can be made to operate with new directory server with revamped directory tree structure.We are not going to upgrade to a new version of either directory or messaging server.

    The "schema 1" that 6.0 supports is the two tree system.
    Schema 2 is single tree. You may be able to go that direction, BUT this road is not well documented. There's really no "schema guide" the way there is for 5.2 and "schema 1".
    You can certainly download and install 6.1, and provisioin some test users, and see what it does.
    The mailstore has had only minor changes gooing from 5.1 to 5.2 to 6.0 to 6.1, and the server should automatically and invisibly upgrade as you go.
    the queue is incompatible, so you will need to clear the queue before you upgrade.

  • Directory Tree Portlet

    We are looking for a portlet that will allow content providers to create new folders via a simple Windows Explorer (directory tree) style interface. We need the interface to be properly linked to the database so that it reflects the current structure and so that folders can also be deleted via the same interface. It should have all the basic expanding and collapsing features and I would like it to show the content of the folders like Explorer does. Can anyone give me guidance on whether such a portlet already exists or how difficult it would be to develop if it does not exist? (Or maybe I'm headed down the wrong path here and should use a completely different solution...)
    All help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    This sounds more like an iFS requirement. It does all that (and more!), but not as a portlet (yet?).
    You can approximate the directory tree with a Portal Content area (which is available as a portlet), and you get pretty much everything except the expand/collapse bit. It's more along the lines of drill down/drill up.

    i already new that the expanding feature would require JS
    If you look at the example given by David and go to jqueryFileTree.css you will notice the style rules that have been used to supply an image to the list element. In this example the classes are determined by a JS function.
    In your case you need to create an image carrying a plus sign and apply that in the same manner.

  • Directory tree in Windows

    When I downloaded iTunes it created a directory tree with two subdirectories --- Album Artwork and iTunes Music. All downloads -- music, audiobooks, and movies seemed to be located here. Shouldn't I expected to see a series of subdirectories -- podcasts, movies, audiobooks, music -- for each category of download I've purchased. The reason this comes up is the audiobooks show up as entries in Albums on my iPod and I'd like to get them out of there. When I open the iTunes library they are classified correctly.

    You could write it as a static initializer in your main class. That'll
    cause it to run before anything else.

  • Search a Directory Tree For a Directory

    Hello All,
    Alright, the backround first. I am working on a system for managing photos for cases. So, the top photos dir has 5 dirs represnting the years. In each of those, are months, in those are days, and in the days there are dir named for the casenumber. This may sound confussing but...Say for Case number 05-00001 which happened January 1st 2005, the photos would be in ./photos/2005/1/1/05-00001/Now I cant change the dir structure because this is how the system uploads them, but I need a program to search this dir tree when the person enters a case number and return the photos. Everything works great (from a logic standpoint) but the problem is that there are about 20,000+ cases a year and if the case is toward the end it takes FOREVER to search through them all.
    What I am looking for is suggestions on how to most efficently search for these cases...
    Thanks,
    Matt

    a particular string. I was able to read one file in
    a single directory but not in any other directory.
    How would I go about writing code to be able to
    access all files in directory that has multiple sub
    folders.
    You can do that several ways.
    Most likely you'll end up with some sort of recursive iteration over the directory tree.
    Not hard to write, somewhat harder to prevent memory problems if you end up with a lot of data.
    Also, when I started to write my program I tried to
    use the DOM XML Parser to parse my html page. My
    logic behind this decision was that if you look at
    html code it is an xml document. But as I was
    trying to run my program I noticed that I had to
    convert my html document into xml format. I really
    don't want to have to build my own html parser. Is
    there a html parser that is included in Java. Oh my
    program is just your basic text program. No
    interfaces.
    A VALID xhtml document is a valid XML document.
    Problem is that most HTML isn't xhtml.
    Another problem is that most HTML is fundamentally broken even to its own standards (which have always been based on SGML on which XML is also based).
    Browsers take that into account by being extremely lax on standards compliance and effectively making up tags as they go along to fill in the missing ones in the trees they parse.
    That's however not a standardised process and each browser handles it differently (and as a result most html will render differently in different browsers).
    Java contains a simple HTML parser in Swing, but it's primitive and will only parse a subset of HTML 2.0.
    There are almost certainly 3rd party libraries out there that can do better, both free and/or commercial.
