Another disaster. I moved all those files to folders outside the folder I wanted to work in. But then when I opened the folder in darktable, it still showed them. So, thinking they were safely in independent folders I selected the tiff and jpegs, which shouldn't have showed up because I selected the option not to show jpegs. I then removed them by using the right hand panel in lightable and using the remove command. Then despite being somewhere that I thought was safe, they all got deleted from my disk. Not only were the files delected, but the folders I had put them in were also deleted! I really have no idea what dakrtable is doing, It seems to be determined to mess me up whatever I do. I can reocver the tiffs by reexporting them. But the jpegs are gone entirely. -- Leonard Evens [email protected] Professor Emeritus, Department of Mathematics, Northwestern University ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Symantec Endpoint Protection 12 positioned as A LEADER in The Forrester Wave(TM): Endpoint Security, Q1 2013 and "remains a good choice" in the endpoint security space.
