Mind is going in circles and may be over-thinking:
I using ReunionTouch successfully with Reunion 11, but never got around to making sure pictures and other multimedia items were organized to sync with the family file on iPhone and iPad because I feared it would be too complicated, since my folders aren't organized precisely as recommended to use this feature. I'd like to set it up now to do it right with Reunion 12.
Because I have two separate large family files for my family and my husband's, I've always had my folders organized as follows on my computer to maintain the separation and make it simpler to find or add individual photos, depending on which family file I was working on AND which genealogy software I was using, as I was for a couple of years using both Reunion and (experimentally) Family Tree Maker:
On my iMac, I had files organized like this:
DOCUMENTS/GENEALOGY/REUNION
and
DOCUMENTS/GENEALOGY/FAMILY TREE MAKER
Both software packages found their relevant photos and other multimedia items in:
DOCUMENTS/GENEALOGY/GENEALOGY PICTURES/PICTURES-JCM (for my family file)
and
DOCUMENTS/GENEALOGY/GENEALOGY PICTURES/PICTURES-TBM (for my husband's family file)
Is it even possible to maintain that level of separation for my Reunion files using Reunion Touch, WITHIN one Dropbox folder? Could I have a folder sequence in Dropbox such as:
REUNION/REUNION FILES-JCM/ (then have my tree, and sub-folders for my photos, charts, etc.?
and
REUNION/REUNION FILES-TBM/ then have husband's tree, and sub-folders for his photos, charts, etc?
Or must I have all genealogy photos, co-mingled for both families, in one large folder?
What's the best way to deal with this?
