Rating Stacked Images


Rating stacked images, such as our South Beach images, isn't much different from rating unstacked images.

1.

Press the W key to reveal the Projects panel, select the South Beach project, and then press W again to close the Projects panel.

You can open the stacks and rate other images that are not picks, but remember, the idea with stacks, especially stacks of bracketed images, is that you are choosing the best image of the series as the pick of the stack.

2.

Drag the Thumbnail Resize slider so that all the closed stacks fit within the Browser.

3.

Select the SoBe_2005 36 of 50 image.

4.

Press the backslash key (\) to make this image a select.

5.

Select SoBe_2005 12 of 50 in the Browser and press the backslash key (\) to make it a select.

6.

Navigate to and rate the following seven South Beach images as selects: SoBe_2005 3 of 50, SoBe_2005 4 of 50, SoBe_2005 8 of 50, SoBe_2005 24 of 50, SoBe_2005 27 of 50, SoBe_2005 40 of 50, and SoBe_2005 48 of 50.

Now that you have rated the images, you can use a filter to display only the five-star images. We'll do that next.

In addition to basic search filters, you should know that a Query HUD is available when you need to perform more advanced search and rating operations.

The Query HUD (HUD stands for heads-up display) is an easy-to-use panel that lets you search for images. Using the Query HUD, you can search images by text, rating, keyword, date, IPTC information, EXIF information, or a combination of any of these criteria. You can also use the Query HUD to filter what you are viewing in the Browser based on image metadata. You'll learn more about filtering and querying in Lesson 8, "Advanced Organization and Rating."
