Library management functions sorely needed!

ThomasGeist
C1 7 urgently needs at least some basic functions to manage/update library contents.
- find missing images
- update folder
- reset folder path

Media Pro has them, Capture One needs them!

If anything in a library changed outside of C1, the user is basically lost.

    Also moving a file to a different folder MUST take care of xmp sidecar files! Again, Media Pro does this.

    And the ironic thing is that if I move files outside of C1 to have xml moved along (with any tool that includes xmp while moving - Lightroom, Media Pro, Photo Mechanic ...) I need to re-locate these images within C1.

    But C1's Locate function is severely crippled. One can only relocate single images and there is no include other found images-function.

    I promise, it will take only a few minutes to end up in a huge mess and people will hate the new Library if this doesn't gain some functionality soon.

    P.S. also no create new subfolder function. The current process is confusing. One needs to Add Folder and then in the file selector box create a new folder with the OS' functionality. Not everybody might figure this out.

    I Second this. A Real catalog structure needs basic administration functionalities.

    A Find function is there, if you move files and then click on Find you can tell C1 the new location of the folder.

    But renaming is greyed out and a synchronize function is missing completely. Testing xmp files but mine were not moved and if I move a folder the empty folder stays in its position and is not moved. Bug or Feature?

    This unfortunately is still unresolved in 7.0.2
