Hi folks.

I have a large number of images (460GB) which are on my :C Drive. Many of these images have qimage non destructive edits applied. I would like to move everything (keeping the same folder structure) to a new external HDD. I know that I can open folders and use qimage menu to move images, but that process is very slow for thousands of files. If I transfer all the files to the new external HDD first (keeping the same folder structure), is there a way I can maintain all of the non-destructive qimage edits and apply them to the re-located images? I know some applications create seperate files inside the image folder, where they store the edit information but I don't see those with QI. Am I right to assume these are all stored in the qimage database? Can I (for example) copy this database in to the new drive to maintain all the edit data?

Sorry if this info has already been provided. I was unable to find anything in search

Kin regards John

Nice feature ... thanks !

Sure.  It places all selected prints on deck so after you open the job, click on any print in the live view and press Ctrl-A to select all prints.  Then right click on any of the selected prints and select "On Deck", "Place On Deck".

When I open a stored job I can scroll from page to page which is nice. However there are no thumbs on deck. I figured out how to place one thumb after the other on deck. Is there a way to place all thumbs of the job on deck in one go?

Thanks for the quick fix! Now it works as expected.

Thanks Alfons and StephenG for the reports.

2025.104 fixes this.  The problem did only occur after using the high res simulation.  Just one line of code missing: to reset the simulation flag after running a simulation.
