<br>
I have an huge folder containing all my pictures. This folder "My pictures"<br>
and its sub folders has the following structure:<br>
<br>
My pictures<br>
+-- yyyy event 1<br>
+--yyyymmdd day 1<br>
+--yyyymmdd day 2<br>
+-- etc<br>
+-- yyyy event 2<br>
+--yyyymmdd day 1<br>
+--yyyymmdd day 1<br>
+-- etc<br>
+-- etc<br>
<br>
Now I plan to use the folder "My picures" as root collection for Digikam,<br>
but I only want to import a selection of the events in the folder "My<br>
picures". So with respect to the example given above I want to import "event<br>
1" but do not want to import "event 2". But it seems to me that is not<br>
possible, is it? (the exclude option is no option)<br>
<br>
I think the only solution is: I have to set up a new folder for my<br>
collection, e.g. "My pictures 2" and then import the required folders. But I<br>
do not want to have two root folders containing pictures, in best case I do<br>
not want to change my existing structure. <br>
<br>
So, is it possible to use my folder "My pictures" but not to import all the<br>
sub folders?<br>
What solution you would suggest?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance!<br>
