Filtering the View of Your Images

Filter is a feature that allows users to sort and narrow their photo collection by applying filters based on various metadata (image data) and image attributes.

To access the filtering options, click the Filter icon (the three horizontal lines icon) in the bottom-right corner of the workspace:

Filter Options:

• All Photos: Select this to clear any active filters and display all images in your current Catalog or folder.

• Edit: Filter images by whether they have been edited. Showing only edited images makes it easy to find the photos you have already processed.

• Flag: Filter images by their status. You can choose to show only images you have flagged as Favorites, images you have Rejected, or Unmarked photos (images not tagged as either Favorite or Rejected).

• Rating: Filter your photos by user-assigned star ratings (e.g., showing only 5-star ones).

• Capture Date: Filter images by when the photo was taken (e.g., Today, This Week, Last Month, etc.).

• Edit Date: Locate photos based on when they were last edited in the application (e.g., Today, This Week, Last Month, etc.).

• Camera: Filter by the specific camera model used to take the photo.

• Focal Length: Filter by the distance between the camera lens and the image sensor (affecting zoom and field of view).

• ISO: Filter by the camera setting that controls the sensor's sensitivity to light.

• Aperture: Filter by the size of the camera's lens opening (impacting the depth of field and brightness).

• Shutter Speed: Filter by how long the camera’s shutter was open to let light in (affecting exposure).

• File Format: Filter by specific file formats (e.g, JPEG, NEF, TIF, etc.)

These extensive filtering options allows to quickly locate specific images based on detailed criteria, making it easier to manage large photo collections.

Adjusting Image Thumbnail Size

In the bottom-right corner, you can also find the Thumbnail Size dropdown menu, which lets you resize image thumbnails for better viewing. Click it to choose between Small, Medium, Large, and Largest:

When in Single Image View, the Filter and Thumbnail Size options are hidden.
