New Design - New Ways To
Work
QPict 7 introduces new ways to organize and work
with your media files that will improve the user
experience and flexibility. QPict has always been
one of the most powerful software available when it
comes to functionality and flexibility. Now we have
made all that power really easy to use. Previously
you could use the powerful Actions window to do
what you wanted, now you can also do most things
simply by clicking and dragging files. It's just as
easy as moving files between folders in the
Finder.
Working with QPict 7 is very easy
- select a folder or index file you want to work
with from the Source List. If you want to see all
media files with a specific keyword, click on it in
the Organizer List. If you want to assign keywords,
categories or other meta data simply drag the
thumbnails from the index area onto the items in
the organizer list.
 The
Source List
The Source List is global and contains the same
items for all index windows. By selecting volume,
folder or index from the source list, the contents
of that item will open in the index area. If you
want to browse for media files you can just
navigate through the source list and select the
folder or volume you want to see. The Source List
keeps track of recently opened folders and index
files. In the bottom part of the Source List you
can add your own favorite folders, index files and
volumes for quick access.
The Toolbar
The toolbar in QPict 7 has a cleaner design and
easy to use buttons for hiding and showing the
source list and organizer list. It now also
contains a search field for quickly searching for
media files.
The Organizer List
The most important addition to QPict 7 is the
Organizer List. With the Organizer List you can use
drag and drop to apply meta data. You can click on
a keyword or any other meta data to only show those
media files in the index. You can change the meta
data by clicking in the name part and rename it. To
add the keyword "Night" to media files you simply
select them in the index area and drag them onto
"Night". To add a new keyword, drag your media
files onto the "Keywords" folder and enter the new
keyword. Adding meta data has never been so quick
and easy!
There are other really helpful
folders in the Organizer List such as the "Kind"
folder:
QPict automatically groups all
your media files based on their filetype.
The "Name" folder is very clever,
it groups all your media files based on their
filenames, regardless of filetype. Example: The
files "01Car.jpg" "Car-33.pdf" "Car.ps" all appears
in the group "Car".
