Selecting multiple Rated images for Export...how?

Denis Mortell
I always view images in Film Strip mode.

I make 5 star selections of the images I want to edit.

I then select Rating from the Sort By drop down menu.

Question: When it comes to saving out all these images at the same time, is there a way of selecting them all (i.e. all the 5 star rated images) at once, rather than Ctrl + Clicking on each of them individually?

Thanks.

    This is what I do...

    Make sure the "Edit all selected variants" button is enabled.

    Then, near the top right of the Capture One window there is a magnifying glass icon.

    If you click on that, a small drop down panel appears. That panel has another magnifying glass icon at the left.

    Click that and another drop down panel appears with options for star ratings and colours. Click the rating or colour you want and only the images matching that spec will appear in the film strip. This is effectively setting a filter.

    Press Ctrl+A to select all the images in the film strip, right-click over one of them and select the Export option from the context menu.

    After completing the export, in the first drop down panel, click the circular icon with an 'x' in it to remove the filter.

    I believe you can also use the same technique to select your images and then use 'Process all selected variants' option instead of using the Export option, if you wish.

    The standards for windows file selections are as follows.

    For picking individual files from the currently displayed files do what you are doing - CTRL-Click.

    To pick all the currently displayed files (for example if you have pre-filtered a larger selection based on a star rating)

    Select all - CTRL-A

    As an alternative in the case where you might have SORTED a number of files to group them for selection, click and highlight the first file SHIFT Click the last file in the contiguous range you require. That should highlight all of them and give you an entire selection.

    These are STANDARD windows functions - nothing special to Capture One.


    HTH.

    Grant,

    Perfect! Works a treat.

    Richard, if you're Windows, as I am, Grant's solution is a piece of cake.

    Thanks to both.
