Sorting Images
You can change the order of images in the Browser based on image properties such as
filename, file size, date, color label, rating, and more. For example, when displaying images
by filename, Aperture places the images in alphabetical order. You might also order the
images by date or time. You choose the sort property from the Sorting pop-up menu in
grid view, list view, and filmstrip view.
Choose the sort property
and direction from the
Sorting pop-up menu.

orientation, requiring you to rotate them. The tool strip provides a Rotate tool for rotating
selected images counterclockwise. You can rotate images individually or select a group
and rotate them all at once. You can also select images and quickly rotate them using
keyboard shortcuts.

press the Left Bracket ([) key, or Photos > Rotate Clockwise, or press the Right Bracket (])
key.
