Multiple Delete?

agallia

How do I delete multiple photos from a gallery? Thanks.

Allen

Go to Organizer and click all the photos you want to delete. Use shift or control key to select multiples.
Click trash can.

Thanks, Allen. But trying to decide if an image should be deleted by looking at thumbs is risky without seeing larger size. Is there anyway to view images individually and flag for multiple delete? Seems Old SM had a enlarged pop up on mouse over in multiple delete mode.

[strike]Try this. In the gallery quickly edit the caption for the ones you want to delete and add "_delete" in
front of anything in the caption. Then in Organizer sort by caption. The delete group of photos should
show first I think.[/strike]


Another possible option:
I think you could "hide" the photos to delete and the eye will appear on them in the Organizer.
Just checked and it works. Photo tools wrench > Organize > hide

There's no way to flag images for multiple deletion. You can click to enable filenames in the organizer. http://www.screencast.com/t/Iwd44bKWJZ

Thanks, Allen. Yes guess the 'hide' option will work as you said. But hope SM comes up with an easier way.
