Folder Context Menu

The Folder Context menu appears after clicking the right mouse button over a folder, or after selecting a folder and then pressing the special Context Menu key on the Windows keyboard.

A context menu will contain different choices, based on the current circumstances. Only some of the following menu items will appear at any one time.

New Folder

Creates a new folder in the Image Archive. The folder will be created in the currently selected folder.

Rename Folder

Changes the name of the selected folder in the Image Archive.

Delete Folder

Removes the selected folder and moves all of its contents to the StudioLine Recycle Bin.

Move Folder

Opens the Image Archive Explorer so you can browse to the location where you want to move the folder. On the workspace, select images or folders that you want to move and drag them onto the StudioLine Explorer.

Colorize

Pick from the choice of colors to color-code the folder.

Descriptor Defaults

Opens the panel "Descriptor Defaults for &ldots;". You can set default values for new images that are imported to this folder.

Store Originals Externally

Moves the original images from the StudioLine database to your hard disk. You will need to choose a folder location. StudioLine retains references to the external images as well as the active image tools for each image. If you delete or make changes to the external image, StudioLine cannot recover your changes. It is generally recommended to store images internally.

Store Originals Internally

Converts external images to internal images. To import an external image, you may be asked to insert the original CD/DVD or removable disk if that is where the original image resides.

Write CD/DVD Submenu

Backup Folder

Safeguards your most precious moments by creating a backup on CD or DVD. If applicable, StudioLine will prompt you whether to backup any subfolders.

Offload Folder

After a while, you may no longer need to work with images in certain folders. The offload function allows you to move the large master-copies of all images into a folder, CD or DVD. Once the offload is successful, the physical images will be deleted off the hard disk, conserving valuable disk space.

Export Images

Write the images of the current folder to CDs or DVDs using the most common graphics formats.
