Option/shortcut to be able to star/favourite a photo while slideshow running

[razvan73]

Hi,
I would find very useful to be able to star/favourite/rate images while screen saver is running, wthout interrupting the slide show.

Thanks a lot for your great work!

Thanks you for your suggestion.

How would you like to see an image marked as favourite? Is there a specific metatag you would like adding?

[razvan73]

If it is possible, one way I would see it acheived is to e.g. when hitting numeric '1' - '5' keys while the slideshow is running, the photo to get the corresponding rating (and Rating metatag to be updated with this value; for being able to select later, even in Explorer, the photos with a certain rating.)

Thank you so much!

Thanks for your feedback. Will probably end up using F1 - F5, Numpad numbers or ctrl+1-5 / alt+1 - 5, as the regular numbers are used to select screens on multi monitor setup (do you have a preference?).

Numpad numbers 1-5 would do it ok for me.

Thanks a million!

(Side question: would it be possible to set up a filter to play all images
e.g. with Rating = 5?)

Yes you can filter on ratings, for now you'll have to use a raw SQL filter with the content:
all LIKE "%Rating 5%"
Note there is a tab not a space between Rating and the value.

Edit:
Playing with this I found that GitHub doesn't include the tab between Rating and the value and pressing tab in the Config menu takes you to the next input field. From RPS 4.4 you can use a metadata filter Containing instead:

Rating\t5

Rating images has been implemented in RPS 4.4. Use shortcut Ctrl + 0 ... 5. Numpad conflicted with earlier shortcuts and having to use ctrl + number should avoid accidental rating, of course ratings can be completely disabled from settings.

Try adding the following to the QuickMetadata:

<#<div class='rating r{Rating}'>{Rating} stars</div>#>

Looks great, thanks!
