Setting selective browsing criteria
The Selective Browsing pane is divided into three areas: Folders, Catalog, and Calendar, each of which corresponds to the Manage
mode pane of the same name. When the Selective Browsing pane is open, the Contents bar in the File List pane is replaced by the
Selective Browsing bar, which lists all of the current browsing criteria.
When you add a folder, date range, or organize method to the Selective Browsing pane, ACDSee Pro excludes any files that do not
match that criteria. You can add or remove criteria to narrow or broaden your results.
To add selective browsing criteria:
With the Selective Browsing pane open, do any of the following:
In the Folders pane, select one or more folders.
In the Catalog pane, select one or more categories, and/or a rating.
In the Calendar pane, select one or more date ranges.
As each criteria is added to the Selective Browsing pane, ACDSee Pro searches its database for files in that folder, that match the
date range, and are assigned to the classification, and displays them in the File List pane. You can then select those files and use
the ACDSee Pro features to edit, share, move, and view them however you want.
You can also adjust or refine your criteria in the Selective Browsing pane:
To remove a selected criteria from the Selective Browsing pane, right-click any of the criteria, and then select Remove
From Scope.
To exclude all of a certain type of criteria, click the bar above the list, and toggle the option to include that type in the scope.
For example, to exclude the listed folders from the scope, click the Folders bar, and then click Include Folders in Scope.
The folders you selected will still be displayed in the Selective Browsing pane, but will not factor in the results.
To remove all criteria of a certain type, click the bar above the list, and select Clear All.
The default behavior for categories in the Selective Browsing pane is to display files that match any of the categories listed. You
can refine your results by choosing to display only those files that are assigned to all of the specified categories. To toggle
between behaviors, right-click the bar above the categories you selected, and select Match Any or Match All.
Tips for selective browsing
When you add a criteria to the Selective Browsing pane, you are indicating that the files you want to browse must have that
attribute. For example, if you select a folder in the Folders pane, then ACDSee Pro displays only files in that folder. If you select a
rating in the Catalog pane, ACDSee Pro displays only files assigned to that rating.
You can combine criteria to refine your selective browsing even further. For example, if you select a category and a date range, then
ACDSee Pro displays only those files that belong to both the category and date range you selected. ACDSee Pro does not display
items that fall within the date range unless they are also assigned to the correct category, and does not display files assigned to that
category unless they also match the date range.
Hiding the Selective Browsing pane
You can use the Auto Hide feature to automatically hide the Selective Browsing pane and increase space for the File List pane. When
the pane is set to auto-hide, it rolls away when you click outside it, leaving only an edge displayed. You can access the pane again by
