Sort photos by rating

After you’ve rated your photos, you can sort photos according to a specific rating. For example,
after an initial rating pass, you can choose to show only those photos rated Select, with five
stars. You can then closely inspect and further refine your selection or begin making image
adjustments. You can sort photos by rating using either the pop-up menu in the Browser’s search
field or the Rating controls in the Filter HUD.

Note: Original image files are not deleted when sorted by rating. They are only temporarily
removed from view.
