Flagging files

Flagging files is a flexible way for you to quickly reduce a large number of files into a smaller, more manageable group. You can choose to view only flagged files, or unflagged files.

For example, if you've just imported a large number of images, you can then view the files in the File Browser. You can review each new image you have, and then flag the images you want to keep. After this initial pass, you can view only files you've flagged, then drag images around to group or rank them, or apply metadata.

When you view different folders, the File Browser always shows you both Flagged and Unflagged files until you choose another option.
