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".
User Guide
We have created a completely new User
Guide. Check it out and see many
other new features of QPict 7.

much more to say about this new
version. Give it a spin and tell us
