duplicate import bulk handling

[xaier]

Hi,

Great script firstly. I was wondering is there an option to setup the script to handle duplicate file imports.

right now it dialog box pops up that asks how would you like to handle duplicate files? obviously do not import but you have to sit there and watch for this dialog which be tedious.

any one else have a solution to this issue?

this is the line - change the no to a yes, as so:
import imageList into fotoAlbum skip check duplicates yes

as a ps, for modern Photos, you probably want to also
set extensionsList to {"heic", "HEIC", "jpg", "png", "tiff", "JPG", "jpeg", "gif", "JPEG", "PNG", "TIFF", "GIF", "MOV", "mov", "MP4", "mp4", "M4V", "m4v", "MPG", "mpg", "BMP", "bmp", "TIF", "tif", "AVI", "avi", "PSD", "psd", "ai", "AI", "orf", "ORF", "nef", "NEF", "crw", "CRW", "cr2", "CR2", "dng", "DNG", "PEF"}
to capture the HEIC format used now

Did you test what is the behavior in this case?
Does it skip them or import them anyway?
