If I select a group of photos on a contact sheet then right click and go to rating on the pull down menu the only images that gets its rating changed is the one that was current when the group was selected. It would seem more useful if they would all change. This is the same with color class. Maybe this is the way it is intended to work? I just started using the right click menu. I checked PM5 and it works the same way so I guess that it is intended. thanks Simon Photo Mechanic Version 6.0, build 2818 (66ae7fc) Mac OS 10.13.6 iMac 27.5 inch
