Image Sets

For each ProSelect album, you can optionally arrange your images into different sets.  When you first import images into a ProSelect album, they are placed in "Set 1" by default.  When you mouse over the image set bar, a drop-down arrow appears.  Click on the drop-down arrow to reveal all image sets.



Show All Sets

Selecting "Show all Sets" will add the sets to the bottom of the Image List.  From here, you can drag and drop images to move them between the sets.  

Moving Images to a Set
  1. Select "Show All Sets" from the drop-down menu.
  2. Select one or many images from the Display Area (or Image List).
  3. Drag and drop them onto the desired set name.  The images will be moved into the new set.
Copying Images to a Set
  1. To make a copy of the image, hold the OptionAlt key down when dragging the image and dropping it into a new set.
  2. You can also copy the image by holding the OptionAlt key down and clicking on the desired set name. 
  3. Once placed in the new set, the image will appear in both places.
  4. If you select an image in the Display Area and it appears in more than one set, a plus (+) will appear next to the set name where the copy appears.

It is important to note that as you move images between sets, their position in the Yes, Maybe, or No tabs goes with them.  For example, if you move an image from the Maybe tab in Set 1 into Set 3, it will be positioned in the Maybe tab in Set 3 as well.

Number of Image Sets

You can have up to 15 different image sets. By default, albums are created with 6 image sets.  To change this, go to the top menu, ProSelectEdit > Settings >  General Settings > General Defaults > No. Of Image Sets.  You can choose to have 3,6,10, 15, or No image sets.

Editing Image Set Names

Select "Edit Image Set Names" from the drop-down menu.  Alternatively, go to the top menu, File > Change Set Names.  The Edit Set Name dialog will appear.

Set Names Library

You can save frequently used Set names into the Set Name Library using the Save Arrow button (the lower one).  Clicking on the arrow will make a copy of the set names you have created.  You will be prompted to enter a name for the group.  This group will then be saved and available to use in other working with modes.

Loading Set Names

By default, the top row of names in the Set Name Library is used when a new Album is started.  To change this, drag the row of set names that you wish to use to the top row.  To apply set names from the Library to your current Album, select the row of names that you want, click the Load Arrow button (the top one), and click OK.

Deleting Set Names

To delete a group of set names from the Library, select the row and click the Trash button.  You cannot delete the last set.

Set Notes

You have the option of adding notes to each set.  Click on the Notes tag  to open the Set Notes dialog.

 

Quick Tip - Adding a Folder of Images to a Set

You can select any set and import a folder of images directly into that set by using the Add Folder of Images to Album tool , selecting and dragging the folder into the Image List, or using the Menu option.

 

Quick Tip - Show All Image Sets Together

To quickly view all images from all sets or to perform an operation on images across multiple sets, go to the top menu, View > Show All Image Sets Together.

For example, you could select this and then click the "Maybe" tab to have all the "Maybe" tab images in all sets shown together.  You can then select all images and move them to the "Yes" tab.  When you uncheck Show All Image Sets Together, they will still be in their original sets except in the different tab.
