SUMMARY You can auto-group images by time, filename, or timelapse/burst by selecting multiple images and using the "group" options in the right-click context menu. This is fine for smaller tasks, but it does not work when you want to apply an auto-grouping rule to lots of images or even multiple albums. For example, you might want to group *all* your images by filename so that all your RAW+JPEG images don't take up too much space. Being able to apply auto-grouping options using the maintenance tool would be really useful for grouping lots of images in multiple albums.
Hi Maik, I think this maintenance tool can be a plus and not complicated to do, something like this: - propose the grouping items methods (as in icon-view context menu) - list album contents. - group items using the group pattern. Best Gilles
Hi Gilles, Yes, maintenance tool are possible, but they have their drawbacks. Grouping should not be applied across album boundaries, as individual tasks in the maintenance tool might see different album items. We either need to use a single thread or pre-sort albums. Maik
