You also find them below each preview in the large single file view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Color flags can support the different stages of your editing or selection process. Just like you are used to in other photography apps and tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, you can use the color \u201cgreen = yes\u201d to mark files that you consider to be finished, and your clients can set them to \u201cblack = final\u201d if they agree. Or they can mark files \u201corange = maybe\u201d again if there are still changes to be made. Of course, this is just one example of the many ways you can use the color flags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is possible to give the color flags&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/faq\/how-can-i-rename-a-color-flag\">their own names<\/a>. You can also&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.picdrop.com\/web\/faq\/how-do-i-hide-individual-color-flags\">hide individual color flags<\/a>&nbsp;if you and your clients don&#8217;t need them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With these flexible settings you can set up your workflow exactly the way it suits you and your clients.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"template":"","faq-category":[29],"class_list":["post-583","faq","type-faq","status-publish","hentry","faq-category-using-picdrop"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>How to Use Color Markings in picdrop Galleries - FAQ<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Use color flags in picdrop to organize and streamline your photo selection process.
