Replace Image Location

When tour photo images are physically moved to another location, e.g. to a new drive or another folder, the image location which is saved in the tour is invalid and the image will not be displayed anymore. To solve this problem, the image location can be replaced with another location.

Limitations

• Folder replacement will be done for ALL photo images having the same folder location and not for a selected image.
• Subfolders are ignored.
• This feature is only available in the Tour Photos view and not in other image galleries, e.g. photo gallery tool tip.
• The image location is saved with a platform specific name, therefore the tour images are not displayed, when the tour database is moved to another platform (c:\ is not /home/user).
• An image location from another platform cannot be changed.

How to replace an image folder

• Select a tour which contains photos.
• Open Tour Photos view.
• Hover error message with the mouse.

• When selecting Yes, a new dialog is opened to select a new folder location. Only a folder can be selected and not an image itself. The selected folder should contain images with the same image file name which is contained in the hovered tour photo.
