Then *why* allow an all the selection of more than one image with a single image in view? This seems *more* counter-intuitive than *not* performing an expected operation on all *selected* items, or is it limited only to exporting, which would be even more counter-intuitive? Isn't the selection process/action designed to limit actions to a *selection*? And in the same manner, I can limit view to four or ten images and having twenty selected, export all twenty instead of only those appearing in my view. Please consider returning to the previous behaviour. ps: Expanding or contracting a group now is not a work-a-round to return from darkroom view to lightroom view and display the same image from darkroom view. This is very disconcerting to one working in a large group of images and needing to perform an operation limited to lightroom view before returning to darkroom to continue working. Especially with stars being the only tagging feature present in both views (forgetting reject) and the ability to only view equal and greater number of stars instead of limiting view to equal number of stars. tks for your time and efforts, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
