Gathering Images in an Image Basket

You can use image baskets to gather and hold images and media files from different locations or folders. Once you have placed items in an image basket, you can use any of the tools or features in ACDSee Professional to edit, share, or view those files. You can create up to five image baskets and use them simultaneously.

To Open an Image Basket:

In Manage mode, click Panes | Image Basket | New Image Basket or press Ctrl + Shift + 9. Repeat this step to open up to five image baskets.

To Add Files to an Image Basket:

Do one of the following:

  • In the File List pane, select the files you want to add. Drag the items to the Image Basket.
  • In the File List pane, right-click selected files and choose Add to Image Basket from the context menu. You can also use this method in View mode.
  • In the File List pane, select the files you want to add and press Ctrl + B. You can also use this method in View mode.

The last image basket that you interacted with is considered the "active" basket. This will be indicated with a star next to the basket's name. The active basket is the one that images will be added to when using the context menu or keyboard shortcut in Manage or View mode.

You can also add images to an image basket by dragging them from Windows Explorer.

To Remove Files from an Image Basket:

In the Image Basket, right-click the files, and select Remove from Image Basket or press Alt + X. To remove all files, right-click the Image Basket, and then select Clear Image Basket.

To Rename an Image Basket:

In the Image Basket, right-click and choose Rename Image Basket from the context menu. In the Rename Image Basket dialog, enter a name in the field and press OK.

To Delete an Image Basket:

In the Image Basket, right-click and choose Delete Image Basket from the context menu or press Ctrl + Shift + -. Deleting an image basket will not delete the images within it.
