Hi Tanya,
Tnx. I mean more than 2 pictures open at the same time to see if the order works, for instance. So... no, unfortunately this was not was I was looking for.

This icon is a rectangle with arrows pointing to the corners. It shows one image at a time as large as possible. The left-right arrows work to move through your images. Type W to exit. Is this what you want? You can't change the order of images directly by dragging like in Lightroom. But here is a work-around. 1. Use a tag like "myAlbumn_cats" and In collections, choose tags (instead of filmroll) with the selection of myAlbum_cats. This is what marc.cabuy suggested. 2. At the top middle is "sort by" with a long list of options. If you sort by title, you could title your images "1", "2", "3" and so get the order you want. Or you could use the description field instead. 3. There is also a sort by "custom sort" which I just noticed, but I don't know how to use that. Worth looking into.

Is there a possibility to make folders in Darktable for subselections of your work? Say I’m working on a series and I’m trying different combinations, it would be handy if I had the option to create/save those series somewhere, from within Darktable. I hear Lightroom has something like that and I figure it’s very helpful. >> [1a] It would also be helpful if the order can be changed, to see what order works best for that selection. 2. Can I select more than 2 pictures and show them as a series in a pop-up or different screen? Like culling, but for more images. >> [2a: Again... It would also be helpful if the order can be changed, to see what order works best for that selection..] 3. I discovered that the histogram box shows 2 different kinds of histograms. I don’t understand the difference. (Logarithmic/lineair.) What’s the best option for newbies to histograms? I was looking at an image that seemed great, but the histo was way clipped. Then I discoverd the lineair version and nothing was clipped at al. Of course I look at the picture for the results, but I also want to work with the histogram more. I understand the basic idea, but I don’t know for wich version that goes :-) Oh and culling doesn’t work well. Sometimes it’s okay, sometimes I see another selection being enlarged. In that case 1 is from my selection and the other is the one next to it, but something I selected. Since I’ll be working on a Macbook Air next week I’m not diving into this too much now. At this point I’m still working on a Windows 10 64 bit machine, don’t know if that’s helpful info.
