I realize now what I really need is a command line sync so that so I can create folder pairs on the fly. Update: I have create a test command with 3 left and 3 right folders. The GUI pops up, which was not what I expected. It does allow me to manually and visually compare, which is a step I rather s...

Pfft! You have a very specific use case that, as far as I see it now, is presently not supported by FFS. But I may be overlooking possibilities … Sorry about that. On second thought: You may look into defining a Custom sync variant. In the Synchronization settings (F8), you can select the Custom va...

(5b) Also, I am allowed to create folder B while away from Office. A copy of folder B is created and then deposited to the filing cabinet when I am back at the office.

That is exactly what I am trying to avoid. I would like to avoid manually adding folder pairs or filters. Think of it as...

Hi, I'm new here. I am looking for a way to sync a subset of folders. I am using to collaborate with other people but I don't need the entire contents of a folder. Let me explain. Left - /Local/ Right - /Remote/ Left /Local/2/ /Local/3/ /Local/9/ Right /Remote/1/ /Remote/2/ /Remote/3/ /Remote/4/ /Re...
