Just a curiosity, in Sets Film (Collections) I noticed that if in my own collections sets one Footage that is part of a trilogy, is equally as icon corresponds complete trilogy although I miss the various movies to complete the trilogy. Indeed, for example, a movie that just came out for a year and being part of a new trilogy is equally represented... is this normal?
As I said, just my Curiosity.

Hi gotham, generally yes but it depends on how you scrape your film either via external media manager or internal kodi scraper.
Generally when a new film is known to be part of a collection then websites like tmdb will have the collection name against the film, so when it is scraped this info is pulled into either the .nfo file or kodi. You can for instance if you use universal movie scraper de-activate this option in the config for that add-on so it would not scrape the collection info, don't know if you could do the same in whatever media manager you use if you do use one.
I sometimes have sets which are just one film due to how it has been scraped and I generally just remove the film from the set. I only build sets when I have multiple films for the set and when there is good enough artwork for the set i.e. a poster and logo, otherwise the films stay separate in my Kodi.
Also, Kodi itself doesn't create a set until more than one film is assigned to it, so if you add one film it will look in your library like a normal film, name artwork etc. but will also show up in movie sets as it is defined as a set, not until you add another does Kodi then create the set and effectively remove the 2 single entries in your library and create a new one for the set.
I think and hope this answered your question?

Thank you for the comprehensive response, all my movies and TV series have NFO files and are scraped externally by AD, NFO files created for the film by MediaElch and for my TV show, just use Ember Media Manager
In fact I had it for about ten collections that is represented as a collection, I had to eliminate these individual movies representing various collections from the database of Kodi.
I thought of a solution of code to edit ...
Question, when scraped NFO files to a new inserimeto of collection, in theory should rippresentarsi this problem for collections incomplete ...?

Thanks bortek, no problem on your english. a screenshot is usually easier to id where the problem is, but we'll look into it anyway.

I presume you would have to map a remote key to ctrl+S which is usually the kodi standard for getting a screenshot, the file image is generally create in the /kodi main directory.
