I'm attempting to get my photo files organized. For no
good reason I have some of my photos in ~/Pictures, and others
in ~/Photos; I want to consolidate all into the standard
"Pictures" directory.
What appears to be the canonical advice for dealing with
situations like this is:
- move one of the directories away. Files will now show
up as "Missing" in Shotwell.
- Make sure setting "Watch Library Directory.." is on
- copy the files into the library directory, and Shotwell
should recognize them, so that they will no longer show up as
missing.
