Filter on read-only, variants and other

Olof Forsberg

Hi,

Is it possible to make a filter/smart album for photos being read-only?  Or photos having variants?  

I have returning need finding which can not be identified using a EXIF or ITPC field.

Thanks 

Olof

    I'm not sure about read only.

    For variants, I can think of a slightly long-winded method.

    1. Choose a folder where you want to just select the images with extra variants. 
    2. Choose any image - if it has variants make sure you choose the number one variant.
    3. Right click its thumbnail, and from the context menu choose Select by same > Variant Position (1)



    4. On the Select menu, choose Invert Selection (or the default keyboard shortcut is Cmd-I)
    5. This now leaves you with only the Variant 2s, Variant 3s etc in the folder selected. You could either drag them to a folder, or assign a colour tag or something to them and then use a smart folder for that colour tag. (You could alternatively just find a variant 2 and choose to select all the ones with the same variant position, but that would omit the Variant 3s, 4s, etc.)

    Not a very elegant solution, I think, but it might help?

    Thank you Ian. That was very helpful. I could find a way to use it. Actually wanted to clean up variations

    Let see if anyone find a way to identify read only files.
