Mm I dunno how Lightroom works (or not) with networked drive but I know that up to a couple days ago my collection was stored on a external drive connected by USB to my laptop. If the drive wasn't connected (e.g. when I'm teaching at school) simply Lightroom will not simply not be able to load the image full screen and will display the thumbnail it has made (depending on your Lightroom settings).
I never ever had problems doing metadata or collection search in catalog with the disk not connected. This isn't a problem. Now, can I suppress a file from disk (disk being not connected) and will the effective delete happen when I'll launch Lightroom with disk connected later? I dunno, I suppose Godfrey knows. -- Thibault Massart aka Thibouille ---------------------- Photo: K10D,Z1,SuperA,KX,MX, P30t and KR-10x ;) ...
