I initially created a smart collection as follows:
Folder > Contains All > DDG_Photographs +
Size > Less Than > .4 MP
Where DDG_Photographs is the parent folder of (almost) my entire collection, including my scans folders.
The smart collection is NOT pulling out images contained in a subfolder of DDG_Photographs called "Scans - Unknown".
My parent folder does not contain any images in itself, only subfolders, so I know that it's pulling from other subfolders for the photos it DID include.
I was able to create another smart collection:
Folder > Contains All > Scans - Unknown +
Size > Less Than > .4 MP
Which did pull I believe all the photos in that folder.
I'd like to have ONE smart collection that pulls from my entire collection, yet for some reason it's excluding this one particular subfolder.
I did test a few things:
It isn't the folder name. I tried changing the name to "Scans_Unknown" to see if the first smart collection was balking at the use of spaces and/or dashes, but the first collection did not pick them up regardless, and the changing my criteria of the second smart collection had no effect when using " - " or "_" for folder name.
Help appreciated!
