Is there an easy way to do the following
I had a shipping manifest which I created a jpg lets say 1931.jpg
Assigned it one by one to the 30 individuals using add pictures (I
submitted enhancement request to see if tag feature could be applied to
pictures)
Now I discovered that I misspelled the name of the picture it should be
1930.jpg
I rename it, now all 30 individuals the picture was assigned to can't
find the picture.
Similar to Masterlist where one can make a global change to certain
information,
can I do this once without going back in 30 times and changing the
name?
You can redirect Legacy to a file with a changed name this way:
Rename the file. Then go to Options, Customise, Locations and click on
Test All Multimedia Paths...
When the program discovers it can't file the picture by the old filename
you will be offered several options, including Browse for the File
Yourself. Click on this and browse for the file with the new filename
and select it and click Open.
Legacy will then ask you if you want to use this new filename and you
click yes.
I don't know if Legacy will then automatically associate that new
filename with *all* instances of the old one or not. If it doesn't, you
will find the correct folder opens each time you click Browse for the
File Yourself so it is very quick to find renamed file.
