Hi

I am not sure what has happened but when I now use the plugin from LR QImage opens the whole folder and not the image I want to print.
Is it me settings/ Never happened with all other versions

THanks for any assistance
Carlos

Can you clarify what you mean by whole folder?  The plugin creates a new export folder each time you use it and whatever images were selected in Lightroom will be in that folder.

Hi Mike

Thanks for your fast response
What happens is that instead of bringing the selected image, it brings up the whole folder and I have to select the image from the thumbnails.
I am attaching screen capture

Thanks in advance

That screenshot shows that you are in a folder: F:\PHOTOS\CURRENT\2025\...

So Qimage will show you the photos in that folder.  If you sent the photos from LR via the plugin, you won't be in your photos folder like that but instead you'll be in an export folder created by the plugin.

I'm not sure what process you are using but this is the correct method to call Qimage from Lightroom:

- Open Lightroom and select the thumbnails you want to send via the thumbs at the bottom of the Lightroom window.
- In Lightroom, select "File", "Plug-in Extras", and then select "Qimage Ultimate.
- Qimage will open with (only) the files you have selected in LR.

Note that in Qimage, the location (above the thumbnails) will be your Qimage export folder (usually something like C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\ddisoftware\Qimage-U\Plugins\Export\<today's date> [LR].  That's your export folder from the LR session.

If you see a true folder on your hard drive (like in your screenshot) instead of an export folder then yes: Qimage is showing you all the images in that folder.

Thanks Mike

Something I might have messed up during installation because it was bringing an image from my last print,
Now it is working as expected

Kind regards
