XML Save - new Names for pictures

kuno21 · Post by **kuno21** » 2006-09-20 14:44:20

Hi

When i save the catalog as XML, and ther are already pictures in the export dir, i will get all pictures exported again, with names like 1_xxxxxxx.jpg. ( the next save will change the xxxxxxx to a new value - so will have a complete serie off all pictures at each xml-saving)

And in the XML-File the last value from xxxxxx will be written.

I turned on that the puctures should not be saved when they allready exist.

Any hints for me

Hi,
You mean if you save several times the catalog without closing/reopening it?

No, that happens also if i open AMC with my default database, save to xml and close amc.

each time i do so, i get a new series of all pics.

Strange. Well, it is for sure a bug. I will see if I can reproduce the problem, and fix it for next version

TNX's

To configure a seperate picture-Path for XML would be usefull :-))

regards

PS:

For me Webtrack is the best addition to AMC

http://www.snille.net/index.php?info=webtrack

Would be great to cooperate with the guys there

Actually he asked me few questions some time ago:

in a future version I will probably arrange the XML handling to make it work better with webtrack (and work better at all, since there are some problems...)

I checked and it is maybe not really a bug... if you save a AMC file that has stored pictures to a XML file in a folder where there are already pictures, well the programme cannot guess that all the pictures are related to a previous conversion. It would be a little complicated to handle.
