Hi. When Aves performs a scan for content, absolutely all image files found in the user's folder are added to the collection. This includes photos of documents, cd-covers, UI elements of some applications and other similar staff.

I'd like to be able to control in which exact folders the application will search for content and to not allow it from searching in other ones. Is it feasible to achieve? Thanks. |

I have a couple more questions. Will the quantity and quality of images affect the performance of the application and memory consumption? E. g. if I have 10 or 10 000 images, what impact on performance and memory consumption will it have? What the program actually do when I include folders in the Hidden paths filter? Does it just cosmetically hide them but still continues to work as if them were not included in the filter? Thanks. Android 10; Aves 1.5.6 (app-izzy-arm64-v8a-release.apk) |
