# Library ratings, labels and flags
|
||
|
||
Select photos in Photo Grid or Square Grid, then use:
|
||
|
||
| Key | Action |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| `0` | Clear the star rating |
|
||
| `1`–`5` | Set the star rating |
|
||
| `[` / `]` | Decrease / increase each selected photo's rating by one, within 0–5 |
|
||
| `6`, `7`, `8`, `9` | Set a red, yellow, green or blue label |
|
||
| `P` | Flag as a pick |
|
||
| `X` | Flag as rejected |
|
||
| `U` | Clear the flag |
|
||
| `Shift` + `0`–`9`, `P`, `X` or `U` | Apply the action and select the next photo |
|
||
|
||
Purple and clearing a colour label are available in Photo → Set Color Label and the photo context
|
||
menu. Purple has no default number key, matching Lightroom Classic. Rejection marks a photo for
|
||
culling; it does not delete the original or remove it from the library.
|
||
Setting a colour label shows the same brief bottom toast as a rating, using the colour or your
|
||
custom label name. Clearing it shows a confirmation too, whether applied by a key, menu or swatch.
|
||
Labelled thumbnails have a translucent matching colour on the square-grid surround, photo-grid
|
||
footer (translucent, over the bottom of the photo) and Detail filmstrip surround. The white active-photo outline remains clear.
|
||
The label confirmation uses a pale matching background with dark text; ratings and errors retain
|
||
their neutral HUD styling. Custom names use the underlying label's colour.
|
||
|
||
Bracket ratings use each photo's own starting rating, and the changed photos form one Undo / Redo
|
||
step. AutoWrite uses the normal rating metadata path. In Detail, including Masking and Remove,
|
||
`[` / `]` keep resizing the brush and shifted brackets keep adjusting feather. Saved overrides,
|
||
remapping and disabling the default brush bindings take precedence over their grid bracket actions.
|
||
The separate Decrease Rating / Increase Rating commands can also be assigned in Help → Keyboard Shortcuts.
|
||
|
||
Grid actions apply to all selected photos and support Undo / Redo. In Compare and Survey, culling
|
||
actions apply to the active photo. Auto Advance moves forward after an action; holding Shift with
|
||
Auto Advance on still advances only once. The last photo stays selected. Text fields keep their
|
||
keyboard input, and `X` in the Crop panel swaps the crop aspect.
|
||
Shifted number keys also use the physical number key when the keyboard reports punctuation
|
||
(for example, `Shift+1` as `!`). Letter shortcuts continue to follow the keyboard layout.
|
||
|
||
`Shift+P` picks and advances in the two library grids. In other views it retains LightCraft's
|
||
Presets-panel binding. `Shift+Z` remains an alternative pick-and-advance key in all views.
|
||
|
||
The macOS native menu displays plain-key bindings but leaves execution to egui; only shortcuts
|
||
AppKit delivers to the menu (Command, Control or function keys) are skipped by egui. The native
|
||
menu correction is adapted from [PR #261](https://github.com/storytold/lightcraft/pull/261),
|
||
commit `4e012a59a6d2442ba749f109ea27aadb5c0b11a5` by Gardy, and addresses the cause reported in
|
||
[issue #283](https://github.com/storytold/lightcraft/issues/283). That PR was open when checked
|
||
on 2026-10-08; this work extends its fix with library culling bindings and tests.
