I am in the process of restructuring my file system by merging two disks onto one disk and then creating a new merged catalog. The file system merge consisted of adding individual "year" folders under one root folder. I created the merged catalog by importing the new file structure using the "Import Folder" method into a new, empty database. This appears to have worked except that I have lost the color labels and folder states of my images (see screenshot)
I have access to the original catalogs prior to merging which have the correctly assigned color labels and folder states (see screenshot)
I was wondering if there was a way of exporting just the color labels and folder states from the original catalogs, and then importing them into the new merged catalog?

Copying Color Labels and Folder States
Re: Copying Color Labels and Folder States
Have you looked at the Script Resources maybe something like https://repository.idimager.com/openres ... BA39394939 would be suitable to Export from the previous version and then Import into the New structure, but take care with having backups of course!

Re: Copying Color Labels and Folder States
Thanks for the suggestion, Geoff.
I did consider that script, but thought it did an export and import of the whole catalog. I will try it out on a test database to see how it works.

Re: Copying Color Labels and Folder States
Did a test of the script on an empty database and it did what I expected, the whole catalogue structure was imported.
