Question

Rating not working on Full Screen Preview on Mac

With my old laptop I could rate pictures in Full Screen Preview (Spacebar) mode, then I could see the rating in the lower left corner. But with my new Mac Book Air, I can only rate in the list of the file names. It doesn’t work in Full Screen or Review Mode anymore. How can I fix this?

      Hi, ​@SofieDR, it’s working just fine on my desktop Mac. The first thing I’m curious about is whether your smaller screen may be making it harder to find.

      Please try this: select an image, press the space bar, and give it a rating. Now, press the space bar one more time and see if the rating shows up in the thumbnails.

      Oh, one more thing to check: which do you press: the number “5,” or are you pressing “Command-5”?

      I found a fix. I had to change the shortcuts for every view mode individually.
