Lonely People

From ptWiki

By Khodadad

This script is used to create categories for people who are alone in a photo.
If you have, for example:

People
+- Jones
   +- Margaret
   +- Thomas
+- Friends
   +- Smith
      +- John
      +- Susan
   +- Turner
      +- Sarah
      +- Tony

And you execute the script when "People" is the active Category and then choose John, it creates a category:
Lonely People.Friends.Smith.John
with a formula like:

People.Friends.Smith.John NOT (People.Jones OR People.Friends.Turner OR Friends.Smith.Susan)

so that only John appears.

Initially, I created a script that duplicated all the People tree, but as there were a lot of categories with complex formulas, IMatch couldn't handle it, so now you need to choose for which categories you want to create the alone categories. A database backup before trying is recommended, as depending upon your choice, you can collapse IMatch.
