Organizing photos
Last updated 4/20/2015
Flag states are not saved to XMP. They are not visible or available outside of the Lightroom catalog.
❖ In the Library module, do one of the following:
• Select one or more photos in the Grid view, or select a single photo in the Filmstrip in Loupe, Compare, or Survey
view. Then, choose Photo > Set Flag and choose the flag you want. If more than one photo is selected in the
Filmstrip in Loupe, Compare, or Survey view, the flag is applied only to the active photo.
• Select one photo in the Grid view or the Filmstrip and press the letter P to flag the image a pick or the letter X to
mark it as rejected. Hold down Shift and press P or X to set the flag and select the next photo. Hold down Ctrl
(Windows) or Command (Mac OS) and press the Up Arrow or Down Arrow to increase or decrease the flag
status, respectively.
• (Grid view only) Click the Flag icon in the upper-left corner of the photo thumbnails to apply or remove the Pick
flag. Photos with a Reject flag appear dimmed in the Grid view.
note: To show or set flags in the thumbnail cells of the Grid view, make sure that Flags is selected in the Grid View
tab of the Library View Options dialog box. (Choose View > View Options.)
• (Compare and Survey views only) Click the Pick or Rejected flag below the photos.
Flag photos in the Library toolbar
❖ With one or more photos selected in the Grid view, or with a single photo selected in the Filmstrip in the Loupe or
Survey view, click the desired flag in the toolbar. If more than one photo is selected in the Filmstrip in Loupe or
Survey view, the flag is applied only to the active photo.
Note: To show or set flags in the toolbar, choose Flagging from the toolbar menu.

2 Choose Library > Refine Photos.
3 Click Refine in the Refine Photos dialog box.
