Saving projects with all photos and photo groups included
« on: January 06, 2020, 04:30:15 PM »
When I finish my project or when I want to move it to another computer, I end up manually checking if I have all the necessary files included and if the paths are correctly saved.


 I would love to have an option to easily save the whole thing in in one folder. It would help when:
1.  I want to easily archive the project and save it onto a different drive knowing that if I ever come back to it, it will just work.
2. I want to move the whole project to another computer.



What I meen by "the whole thing" is:

1. Metashape project file and all the required files for all chunks (as it already is).
2. All photos used in the project (by copying them from their original location to a subfolder "photos". There should also be an option to remove the photos from their original locations, so there are no duplicates left).
3. All paths to the new location of the photographs.
4. All information about photo groups.
5. In case the photos are extracted from a video, there should also be an option of including the original videos.
6. Everything else that you might think would also be needed....
