The scenes have split option for duplicate scenes, to split and treat two videos files as separate scenes. I was wondering if a similar feature could be possible for identical images as well?
At the moment, duplicate images across galleries will mess up order of images within the gallery. It is even worse when the duplicate image exists within the same gallery as there is no recourse to fix the order in this case.
In the previous scenario (one where duplicates exist across galleries) you can ensure gallery order by filtering file path (assuming you house individual galleries in separate directories).
I think the image splitting will allow for much better gallery viewing experience, especially for H-Mangas and Artist CGs.
