Removing all but the FIRST (by filename) duplicate
Posted: Tue Mar 26, 2019 9:58 pm
Hello there,
First, allow me to compliment you for a GREAT and very useful product!
To the point: I'm comparing similar image files, using the Image Mode and "Very Close Match". I get 19 groups of duplicates, with 85 files that have duplicates. Great.
Now, the files are named sequentially: img-000001.jpeg, img-000002.jpeg and so on. I would like to keep the FIRST (by name) file in each group. I can use the Selection Assistant to "(Mark) all but one file in each group" but the file left unmarked is the last one, while I want it to be the first one!
Any ideas?
