Using flags

You can manage your rented, lent and borrowed stuff with MediaMan. The concept "flag" in MediaMan is used to manage this kind of attribute.

To flag an item as borrowed, you only need to select this item, right click to activate the context menu. At the right side of the small toolbar above the context menu, there is a button with a white flag on it. Click this button to see available flagging options. In this case, simply choose "Borrowed".

You can also record information such as a person, date and period to describe the details of a flag. To achieve this, choose "Advanced..." in the flag options. A dialog will popup allowing you to set detailed flag options.

Pressing "Ctrl+2" will bring you to the flag view, in which, flags, dates, and person are listed separately. This view can be used to quickly locate a due item or missing item and check its flag details.
