Title: Custom sort order (again?)
Post by: Kucera on May 14, 2023, 11:27:51 PM
Hello, I have a custom sorted collection gleaned from many directories, and need files from the collection copied (or numbered?) it that order to a directory outside iMatch.
I believe this was discussed long ago, e.g.,
https://www.photools.com/community/index.php/topic,8334.msg58519.html#msg58519
but I can't find how it was resolved in the end, sorry. Is there an app or script available that does it, or an iMatch native way to do it?
Regards Emil

You can use the Batch Processor  (https://www.photools.com/help/imatch/impexp_batchprocessor.htm)for that.
Under Format and Size enable the "Export original file unmodified".
Folder and File name as needed.
If you don't select a sort profile, the BP exports the images in the same order in which they show in the File Window (your custom order).

Perfect! I knew  you would have had it covered. Thank you very much.
