ThumbsPlus v10 Questions / Tagging Images - Where did Icon Go"

« on: 2019-01-28 18:07:47 »

I recall in t7 that when you tag an image/thumbnail, a little flag icon would show up on the lower left corner of the thumbnail. Is that little icon overlay feature still availabe in t10.. Maybe I ma missing something. The icon shown when I view the image but not on the thumbnail.

Also, Does Alt, tag the images. The help says it does, but did they mover the command. The button help text says it is ctl INS???

ThumbsPlus Suggestions / Re: Search by location (GPS data)

« on: 2019-01-18 15:39:19 »

That would be very cool ... even the ability to paste in all or part of the gps data  would be cool .. so you dont have to have the exact string but just the first part of it.

ThumbsPlus Suggestions / Drag and Drop Meta data between panes [Revised]

« on: 2019-01-18 15:33:17 »

Instead of selecting an item to show in the left pane and then moving it to the right where it indexes to the bottom and then I have to grab it and move it, I would like to just drag it from the left to the right side.

BUT WAIT -- P Crews, you are pretty crafty yes you are. I find that I index on the right side field ( target) and then index on the left side field and then hit the > button and it puts it right under the item selected int he right side target pane ... That is freaking slick ...

Daan, thank you for reply and suggestion! Looks like I have to keep PSP for creating screenshots of actual image displayed next to the satellite view of the map. I was hoping that AcdSee 2018 (which has built-in mapping) can be on pair with TP but it fails short in terms of speed and features.

Hummm .. what program should I look into to get this ability. I am assuming geotagging means taking the gps out of the image metadata sn then showitn an icon on a map and showing the photo on a satelite or map view?

ThumbsPlus v10 Questions / Re: email problem - locks up [SOLVED]

« on: 2019-01-16 15:16:34 »

Hello My friends ...  Solution Found.. Reset your PC ie use the reset to reinstall WIN10


Not pretty but it took care of the problem, sure, it reinstalled windows on my system and I had to reinstall about 15 programs, but, I have done this many times before and nothing else worked.

Tech Support was not able to recreate the problem on their systems and recommended a reinstall of the email ( Outlook) but I was oh Office 356 and I uninstalled that  and then reinstalled it and nothing was solved.

Shifting to a lower gear, I did a reset PC https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17085/windows-8-restore-refresh-reset-pc and when I installed Thumbs and then Office 365 ( Outlook) all works fine. I am not bent out of shape on this because sometimes just one little thing gets corrupted in a million lines of code and that is just what you have to do.

Hint to others ...  Be sure and save off to another drive all your batch routines and your database .. ( BTW i Never keep the thumbs DB on the HD for cased just like this and cases where the drive wont even boot. My images are on portable drives too for this very reason.)

I had forgotten to save my batch routines BUT I discovered them in what appears to be a dustbin for old files that are set aside when you do a reset.
They were here:  C:\Windows.old\Users\{ USERNAME}\AppData\Roaming\ThumbsPlus

BTW - I have a friend that also is having the same problem.

That option was there originally and then with it did not work the first time, I changed it to the Outlook . an note .. I am running outlook office 365

Here is a  line snip from an export file on v7 which is then used to set up the modification of the export file to match the new drive. After the modifications are done, the modified export file is then imported to the t+ v7 database and it recognizes all the data on the new HD.

Highlighted in red is the information that is searched for and replaced in the export file for the sourse HD with the corresponding info from an export of a file on the NEW drive. That "0xd831b632" and computer name designation the OLD drive  will be different for he new drive and that needs to be reset in the modified export file to the new drive #'s ... Right?? At least that is what i am doing. Resetting a volume label to correspondence does not change this number. It needs to be changed directly thru this modification process and reimport  ....

It tracks the SN of the drives and this is used in the process of display and pointing to the images and so it seems to me it is not just the volume label that has to be changed.

Thank you for your reply Daan,

following your first line of thought - the old laptop shows a path  of C:\Rogers images\imagennn , but on the new laptop shows <Rogers laptop C Drive>\Rogers images\imagennn.

How do I change the first part of the address on the new laptop so that it looks to C:\Rogers images\imagennn? which is where the full image resides.

WOW!! thanks for that info on the MDB Viewer!!! It will help in my other work!!!

General Discussion / I Deserve a Standing Ovation

« on: 2019-01-08 12:27:33 »

Ok all .. I just upgraded from t7 to t10.

Standing Ovation Success #1 ....
Reason for staying on v7 so long was because I have to COPY ALL images from one HD to another AND retain all the keywords and the gallery and annotations. [ All that being done so as to have a backup CLONE of my entire image collection on another disk. The thumbs Copy Command does NOT transfer all this information. You lose I think the galleries and maybe annotations.] (I found this out the hard way.)

I was able to reverse engineer what was going on and found out how to use the export DB function of t7 and then go back into the exported file and edit it directly to change the HD indexing information to point to the target drive receiving the copy of all the images.

You do a normal file manager copy of all the images from the source drive to the target drive  ( preserving exactly the same folder structure) and then you replace the td4 with the modified td4 that has the target drive HD index designator overlaid into it and replacing the old HD index info.

The reason for doing all this is because if your have a backup of your thumbs HD and your actual drive crashes, if you recover the backup onto a new disk, the thumbs database will not index the images against the replacement disk, and the indexing will still point to the old drive, and while the thumbnails will show up, they will be orphans ,and you wont be able to call up the image. Thus if you need to have a secure clone you need to do this HD indexing info reassignment to index the old  HD index # to the new HD index #.

Not sure yet how the t10 does a backup. My understanding is that it does not have the thumbs db export capability like t7 did.

If anybody can advise on what happens if the disk of the t10 database and/or your HD that contains you images crashes and you have to run t10 against a new HD containing the restored image files , i would like to hear.

Standing Ovation Success #2 ...
I just recreated 50 thumbs batch tpb files to the t10 batch format. BY HAND!!! I called up t7 and windeowed it next to t10 and went thru each .tbp and manually recreated it in the t10 that was open in the adjoining window .. What a PITA. but done. YAY.
