Chapter 10 Rating Images 115
To apply the same rating to multiple images at once:
1 Select the images you want to rate.
For more information, see “ Navigating Through and Selecting Images ” on page 73.
2 Click a rating button, or press the keyboard shortcut for a rating (see “ Keyboard
Shortcuts for Rating Images ” on page 119).
Note: If you’ve selected multiple images to rate and find that only one image receives a
rating, check to see if the Primary Only button in the control bar is deselected. You can
quickly select or deselect the Primary Only option by pressing S.
Sorting Images by Rating
After you’ve rated your images, you can sort images according to a specific rating. For
example, after an initial rating pass, you can choose to show only those images rated
Select, with five stars. You can then closely inspect and further refine your selection or
begin making adjustments to images.
Note: Image files are not deleted when sorted by rating. They are only temporarily
removed from view.
The rating you assign is displayed
on all the selected images.
