If I had the ability to exclude the default folders from the library, I could then add folders in one at a time until I narrowed down the culprit. In any event, I think there should be an option to have a clean slate. -steve -- Stephen Boots MVP Windows Live Windows Live OneCare Forum Moderator sboots@xxxxxx |

| | I finally found a workaround to exclude default folders I've just found a way to exclude default folders, my pictures and my videos (shared pictures and videos folders are also added, but i phisically deleted them since they are always empty and never used), from photogallery! By default it adds these two ones and is impossible to exclude them (in my pc at least). The only way is to delete them - which is not the best way... ;-) The workaround consists in adding the root of these folders, and exclude it then. In my case i added to the collection F:\, which contains all my documents and includes my pictures and my videos folders. When it has been added, photogallery lets you exclude it (and all its subfolders naturally), so that you can have a clean collection and you're now able to add your favourites directories only. Hope this workaround could be useful to ones who don't like to have PG full of every kind of pictures (like me) and prefer to add photo albums folders only. Bye |
