Uploading "Created Structures" to the library.

Hey Guys...It's Fuzzy49 here...once again

Uploading "Created Structures" to the library.

Wow, I just got done creating all my structures. I proceeded to upload them to AnyRail when I discovered that I had to painstakingly do ONE at a time. I had 48 structure designs, it took me awhile to complete the task.

Why couldn't the designers at AnyRail fix it so someone could upload more than one at a time even if limited to a small amount, say 5 at a time? Would be helpful.
One other thing, I noticed that there are multiple designs of structures in AnyRail, in the various  libraries.

One in particular is... I won't mention the creators name of these unless it is necessary to do so.
Faller, HO..."110140 STATION 1" and the exact same copy "110140 Railway Station Large Germany Epoch IV"

Another duplicate drawing in Faller, HO... is "130191 Zimmerei". There are two of them. Unless the person has two of the same models on their layout and thinks that they have to have it doubled in the library, strange though.

Faller, HO...And still another multiple example "130229 Malin de scierie" / "130229 Moulin Scierie" / "130229 Moulin de Scierie" / "130229 Moulin de scierie", all of these drawings are the same, just the INFO  (Title)  is different.

Is there no one checking these things? I thought I read in AnyRail that when one uploads a drawing it is checked? There should be some kind of control checking for this kind of repeat stuff too.

I noticed that once I create a drawing, and if I do not like it, I than can delete it through the "Details" pop up. But I cannot delete it after I upload it, even though it is my own creation [The outline disappears after uploading]. So policing the libraries would have to fall into the hands of AnyRail people.

Note: I think that if I want to clean up my library, on my end, then all I have to do is open the library, Faller, HO, then find the duplicate copy right click to open details and copy the address [where it is located on my PC] and do a PC search, find it in search and then delete it from my PC. Close AnyRail then open it again to refresh it. I did just that, It worked the copy is gone. Now I have just checked to see if there are any new library updates yet, there weren't any new libraries except the one drawing I deleted, it brought the deleted one back in. So it's up to AnyRail to clean up these libraries to cut down on both size and confusion.

The problem may be the person creating these drawings hastily uploads it then realizes an error and starts over again. Thus adding another copy, and another copy, and so on.

Maybe the designers can figure out something there too. Would save some confusion.

Thanks for listening [reading].
