Selecting multiple folders
Easy-Select bars are vertical columns of check boxes on the left side of the Folders and Organize
panes. You can use the Easy-Select bars to select multiple folders or categories, and display their
contents in the File List pane.
To use the Easy-Select bar:
In the Folders pane, select the check box to the left of each folder with contents you want to
display.
You can also use the Easy-Select bars with the Selective Browsing pane.
Creating and managing folders
You can use the Folders and File List panes to create, delete, rename, and move folders on your hard
drive to help organize your files.
To manage your folders:
1 In the Folders pane, browse to where you want to add, delete, or rename a folder.
2 Do one of the following:
• To create a folder, click File | New, and then select Folder. Type a name for the new folder
and press Enter.
• To delete a folder, select a folder and press Delete.
• To rename a folder, right-click the folder you want to rename and select Rename. Type a
new name for the folder and press Enter.

Browsing files by category, rating, or classification
The Organize pane displays a list of categories, ratings, and special classifications. If you select a
category in the Organize Pane, all images and media files assigned that category display in the File List
pane. You can also use the Easy-Select bar to select a combination of categories, ratings, and special
classifications.
The images and media files display in the File List pane, but are not moved from folder to folder --
categories, ratings, and special classifications work independently of file location.
You cannot rename a drive or any folder on a read-only file system, such as a CD-
ROM.
