h is is one of the most important

h ese specialized selection commands allow you to make complex photo
selections quickly based on several criteria. h ese selections commands are
Boolean ; think of them in terms of yes/no, on/of or active/inactive. You can
start with one selection and then modify it to include only the images you want.
Many selection commands will invert the selection status of the any photos
already selected: selected images become deselected; deselected images
become selected.
Under the Edit menu there are a bunch of selection commands:
• Select Only Active Photo
• Deselect Active Photo
• Select by Flag
• Select by Rating
• Select by Color Label
Always know what's selected
Keep track of your selections at all times. When scrolling in the Grid or
Filmstrip it's possible to have images selected but not visible on the screen.
