Second beta

Hi Kirk,
Nice to have the "old" keyboard shortcuts back in colorclass.
Star rating only works on single files with  the ctrl + no.
If I select multiple files I have to use the dropdown menu.
Or have I missed something?

(Ver 4.5 Beta 2 running on Win XP SP2 MCE, Athlon 64 X2 4600 2gb RAM)

At least in windows, for multiple selections Alt-1 through Alt-5 and Alt-0 work fine. Also, the Ctrl-number combination sets the color class properly.

However, in the right-click context menu there isn't an entry for setting ratings. You have to do it via the main Image menu. But for the color class which is present, right-clicking multiple selections only sets the image that is actually clicked (like it were a single selection), the others are ignored. Is this the expected behavior?

Yes.  Unless you hold down the Shift key (Option key on Mac) then the context menus only apply to the photo you right-clicked on.

It is now fixed in a development build.

I will just borrow one of Beta 2 threads for this
After installing second public beta of 4.5 I have really strange contact sheet. It looks like thumbnails wouldn't have any border anymore (look at screen shoot of 4.5 beta2 and 4.4 below). I guess I can get used to this, but if it would be chance, I would like old style of thumbnails back
PS: Or is it just my computer? But all previous beta versions had same contact sheet look as v4.4.

The label text color is now used as the outline color, like it was on the Mac version.  If you give your label background color a little more contrast, you should see the outlines again.

Thanks Kirk. I didn't even think on this.
