Working with thumbnails

You can arrange thumbnails in a catalog however you wish. This section
describes how to select thumbnails, how to move them within or between
catalogs, how to sort them within a single catalog, and how to open the
images they represent.

You can manipulate one or more images from within a catalog by selecting
their thumbnails and choosing commands in the Image, Enhance, or Script
menus. For information about applying specific commands to thumbnails, see
Chapter 4, “Manipulating Images,” Chapter 5, “Enhancing Images,” and
Chapter 7, “Automating Your Work.”

If you change an image represented by a thumbnail in an open catalog, the
label “Changed” appears across the thumbnail to indicate that the catalog
thumbnail hasn’t yet been updated. PhotoFlash updates the thumbnail the
next time you open the catalog.

Selecting thumbnails

To select a single thumbnail, just click it. The area around the thumbnail’s
image becomes highlighted when the thumbnail is selected.

Selecting separate thumbnails

To select several thumbnails in different parts of the catalog, follow
