OK, I think you brought me the solution! The only o-point I have to keeo in lind is the fact to work with floatng images. These have the advantage to have their filename as header of the window. This give the the possibility of grabing this header to move the image around one whishes. This way I go on working with my two monitors (both 1980x1080) maximized to one screen (1980x2160) . I made two Workspaces: one that use only the upper half and another takes the whole 1980x2160. I didn't look atthe possibility of wirking with Tiled imagesn. These might work as well since they have their name on top. Thank you!!

Thanks for your reaction and sorry for my late answer! I agree with you that what I'm trying to do is possible, but I want to go on,e step further= I'd like to use such screen layout as Workspace. I intended to create and ise two workspaces for 1 and 2 monitors (desktop maximed to 2 screens) depending on what I want to do. Rearanging all subwindows for each session is undoable.

The latter doesn't matter since what I want to do is to give each importnt PS subwindow its own spot on screen. My isseu is I can't find a way to keep or bring the image to a fied spot. Thanx anyhow for the reply!

How to grab the main window (the one that contains the image one is working on), to reposition it on the screen? In fact my underlaying and main problemis that I'm using 2 monitors in landscape mode positionned one above the other. Next I want to use PS maximized to these 2 monnitors, so far so good. That is all right the except for the fact that mentioned window (with the imageà is frequently hidden behind other windows !?

Hello, sorry for the late answer! And no, I don't think I would do it differently. the recovering of all missing folder went well, at least for a number of years. Now I'm somewhat stuck. But I found also a new problem that could be the origin of all troubles. When reading the catalog with sql I see no tables at all! NONE! Reading an older copy of the same catalog gives me a lot of tables! I guess I'll look for a method to add all these missing table definitions and eventually start a new discussion on this forum. best regards Freddy

I agree with what you are saying, but I want LR to work the way it was designed for. After all what's going wrong can't be nothing more then a couple of links that were not updated correctly. I'm going to try to read te catalog with SQLite Database Browser to see what's really wrong. Possibly that will give me a clue about how wrong the links are. Thanks for trying to help me.

I talked about missing folders, not missing files. Folders are missing on the F older pane, and of course files under those folders are not accessible this way.I’m pretty sure that all photos are still out there on my hard drive. Yes this agrees. All photos (and folders) where living under “F:\ +++ Photos +++”. As I told before I moved LR to a new pc and the photos to a external disk. The disk <as then mounted on a mount point on a drive of the same new pc. So the new address became: “ D:\mnt\+++ Photos +++”. In my opinion it would be a piece of cake to link to new and the old “+++ Photos +++”. I don’t know where it went wrong nor what I could have been doing wrong?

I'm quite sure that using this filter all photos van be found. That means they still have entries in the catalog isn't it ? Anyhow that's the way I've been using to recover folders in LR. I accomplished this using "Show in explorer" and then completing this by answering the request to "Locate" the file. This works fine but is tedious since one has to proces all files day by day without being sure that all are shown in LR’s grid nor tto be included in the count on the left pane.

Helo, I did explain it in message # 6 of this conversation. It corresponds to what you suggested me to do. What can I tell you more ? BTW what database does LR use? Any chance to read it with SQL ? regards Freddy

Hello Yes, they are indeed on a different disk but in the same folders. Remember: I moved the whole photo tree to another disk with Windows explorer, thinking that relinking the whole folder structure would be easy. I did give iy a new try with a picture dd july 19 2010: 2010\02 got added with 90 picture (correct number) So your solution works fine, but reveals only one path to the top, in the case that there are other day(s) and folders missing then these remain hidden! Please do remark also that if something is missing initially then all levels are missing like in the first sample (2010-12-11). regards Freddy

Hello, I've been trying fixing the catalog. Under Folders on the left pane of LR I selected the mount point of my folder containing my photo's. And yes there I see 80000+files. That's the right number. I then selected a photo from the grid. One dated in the year 2010, a year completely missing on the left panel. I then located that picture and yes the left pane now shows folders 2010 2010-12 2010-12-11 with 2 (out of 58) pictures ? I located another photo, now dated july 2010 with result the appearance of folders 2010-07 2010-07-01 => 127 photos (out of 130) 2010-07-24 => 7 photos (correct) It seems to me that if I continue this way I'll have a lot of work to do without getting all pictures in place. regards Freddy

Hi John in some ,if not all cases he folder 2000 doesn't even appear on the LR screen. But that seems to be solved meanwhile. That's probably the result of an action I had undertaken and that I tought was without result . I constructerd a tree with a folder for each and every monh and day of a year with in each folder a jpg file; I then dit import those into LR. At fist it didn(t change much, but now after several hours tI see a lot of changes. Maybe that the solut that you are proposing became dable in the new situation!? regards Freddy

i, rhznks for answerin,g my question, but as I tried to explzin I midding flders in LR not files. Well I'm issing the files containredf in those folders mising in LR but the major problem is de folder structure in the LR catalog that is incomplete. A sample may clarify thinfs I guess: D:\mnt\PHOTOS\2000\2000-01\2000-01\01\img-00001.jpg (full path name) this file lives on the right place outside of LR. In Lr this file can only be found under the tab \mount, where it is to be found, bit with the more common problem of pointing to the old location which is no longer on-line. reards Freddy

Hello, this might seem a common error, but I don't think it is: the folders several layers of nested onesà are missing in the thr database of LR. For the entire disk, LR indicates over 80000 pictures, which is correctnut in the folders most of them are missing in the LR but not on disk çnew location). All this happened after moving LR and catalog to a new computer and the folder with all the pictures tu a external disk. I can solve this by looking for a picture for each and every date for which I ever imported at least one. Once that done I can locate the new location. Inconve,eance is that this is a lot of work due to the nimber of files. And on top of the work this solution is not perfect: after this manipulation LR shows only one level of folders for thr so found pictures. Can anyone give me a bettter solution ?
