Rearranging Images in the Browser

As you work with images in the Browser, you can move and rearrange images into any
order or grouping you want. For example, you might want to keep all related images of
a wedding event, such as the cake cutting, in close proximity to allow you to easily
adjust them.

You can drag images to new locations in the Browser. You can drag single images or
selections of multiple images. When you drag images to new locations, you create a
custom arrangement of your images; the Sorting pop-up menu changes to show the
Custom option. Aperture records the order of your images, and any time you choose
Custom from the Sorting pop-up menu, your images reappear in that order.

To rearrange images in the Browser:

m

Drag the images you want to rearrange to a new location; when the green bar appears,
release the mouse button.

To restore a custom arrangement of your images in the Browser:

m

Choose Custom from the Sorting pop-up menu.

Aperture remembers the last time you moved images and restores that arrangement.
