Custom Collections |
Custom Collections are related to playlists in iTunes, not Finder folders. When dragging items to a Collection, the behavior is to add a reference to the item: The item remains visible from the Library, and may be present in more than one Collection.
You may wish to group items with similar subjects or other attributes. To do so, create a custom Collection by either:
Custom Collections can contain as many items of any types that you wish.
Once you’ve created a custom Collection, you can name it by clicking on the placeholder name, “untitled”, and editing the text. You can change the Collection’s icon, name or Comments by selecting the Collection, and then choosing “Show Inspector” from the Window menu. Drag any image to the default folder icon in the Inspector window to place a custom icon on the Collection.
Modifier keys can change the behavior of a drag:
To remove an item from a Collection, select the item in the group, and press the Delete key. If you are viewing the item from a Custom Collection, you will be prompted as to whether you want to remove the item from the Collection, or move it to the Trash.
Note: Dragging an item to the Trash removes the item from all Collections, and places it in the Trash.
