In Lightroom is iot possible to rename all of the directories in a catalog? What I have now in my catalog is a mixture or default settings for diretory names from importing photos from diferent software over the years and I wanted to clean that up

Re: lightroom catalog
I have not actually renamed a folder (directory) myself, but I just opened Lightroom, moved the cursor over one of the folders, and clicked the right mouse button. The menu that popped up included "Rename" as one of the options, so it appears to be an easy job.Javelin wrote:In Lightroom is iot possible to rename all of the directories in a catalog?

Just rename them in the Folders Panel of the Navigator (right click on folder name in Windows).Javelin wrote:In Lightroom is iot possible to rename all of the directories in a catalog?

See the Creating and managing folders section of the Lightroom 2 manual.
It looks like you can "find" folders that you have moved in the OS as well.

Re: lightroom catalog
Thanks guys. I knew I could do it one at a time through the right click menu. but I kind of wanted to do them as a batch routine. I might have to actually make a whole new catalog of my photos and might have the oppertunity then to do it.
