Title: filter by file type? Post by: johnlill on July 22, 2011, 05:12:44 PM I would like to have the ability to filter displayed images in a folder by file type. I keep my raw & edited images in the same folder but normally convert to jpeg in Adobe Camera Raw. I sometimes print raw images directly in Q-U but it would be helpful if, under the View menu, I could select "jpeg only" or sometimes "raw only". Can this be added in a future release, or is it already there? Thanks!

Quote or is it already there? Yes it is but not quite in the way you describe.The contents of a folder can be sorted by Type. The quickest way to do this is via the Menu Cheater Icon (4th from left). See attached screen shot. Terry Title: Re: filter by file type? Post by: johnlill on July 23, 2011, 06:05:55 PM Thanks, Terry, but that's not what I'm looking for. I want to filter out raw photos from view most of the time, not just . Also, I'd rather not waste time building thumbnails if I won't be printing from those files. I normally do my raw processing outside of Qimage and then print from jpegs, psd,, etc. I realize that I can keep the raw files in a different folder but that's inconvenient for my workflow.
Mike - any chance of adding a filter to the view menu? John Title: Re: filter by file type? Post by: Terry-M on July 23, 2011, 07:02:07 PM John,
re. Quote but that's not what I'm looking for OK. Go to edit preferences, bottom of the list, "Include File Types ..", untick RAW, that will do it ;)Terry Title: Re: filter by file type? Post by: johnlill on July 24, 2011, 03:46:51 PM Thanks, Terry! Perfect. When I do want to print directly from the raw files I'll just turn that back on. I appreciate your taking the time to reply!
