OK, I see and it works but that is a really combersome way to get what I need. I could see this being improved. Am I the only one thinking "Hey, I just want to quickly look at all the files with x stars and no others. The method currently is too cluttered.

Thanks for the help,

Ken Gehle

I have done an edit on a shoot where I used 1 star to determine what stayed and what went to the "Cull" folder. The AD made a couple of choices on images he wanted to have a larger jpg of to look at. I gave these 2 stars (1 for first pass, 2 for second pass and 3 for final choice(s)). I would rather not keep the 1 star on the images with a single star yet there is no way to just look at just one star. (YES, I have learned that after the "cull" I should have cleared the "keepers" of the star (culled images go into a subfolder until they are finally tossed at a later time). So, is there a way to do what I want without a "manual process"? Is this something that should be fixed in a future version of Bridge? Or am I nuts to look at this way? (I don't think so).

Well, read further in the book and can answer my own question!

Just type 2005_251_ & add the sequnce number element.

Too easy.

Is there a way to set up the renaming funtion in Import From Camera as follows, as I use the YEAR_JOB#_image number in my intiial files, then adding version numbers and even a descriptive name to the file name as it gets edited, but I always know the "negative" this way. The format is as follows:

Example:  2005_251_Sequence Number

I need the string for the YEAR_JOB_

I will use this only on the Primary Destination, with the secondary being left totally "camera native".

Thanks,

Where is a good referrence/start point/guide for building a long term Keyword list to use in Bridge. I have been adding words that relate to my work but I am curious to whether I am doing this right on not. So, where does one begin?

Ken Gehle

Thanks Peter.

I can't find where the Keyword list I have been creating in Bridge is stored. I would like to create a master list on one machine that could be shared/copied to others in my studio. I just can't find where the list is being written to. Doesn't seem to be a template.
