Dragging & dropping photos
You can drag & drop the thumbnails for photos from the thumbnails section of the Photo Browser window to either the Folder Navigator or to other applications.
Dragging thumbnails to: | Will cause: |
---|---|
a folder in the Folder Navigator | the image files to be moved there |
the icon of an application that can open image files | the image files to be opened |
a folder window or the desktop | the image files to be copied there |
a window of a text editor or terminal emulator | the full paths to those files to be pasted |
(The table above is illustrative and not exhaustive because what happens when an image file is dropped onto an application’s icon or window depends entirely on the application.)
To drag & drop photos:
- Select one or more thumbnails of the photos that you want to drag & drop. (Use the Shift key to select multiple, contiguous thumbnails or the Command Control key to select multiple, non-contiguous thumbnails.)
- Click then drag the selected thumbnails to another application’s window and drop them there by releasing the mouse button.
