Selecting target files to perform actions

You may often need to perform a certain action against target images, e.g. Download annotation results or Move specific images to a different folder.

You can easily identify and select your target images in AnnoStation. There are four ways to determine your target image:

• a single image

• specific images

• all images in a current location with or without subfolders

• based on the search result or filtered images

Select a single image to perform an action:

1. Go to the image you want to perform an action.

2. Select the ... button on the right and then choose a desired action from the drop-down menu.

Select specific images to perform an action:

1. Select a checkbox next to the images you want to perform an action.

2. Click on Actions and then choose a desired action from the drop-down menu.

Perform an action against all images in a current location

1. Click the dropdown icon next to Project breadcrumb.

2. Select a desired action from the drop-down menu.

   • Choose Without subfolders if you want to select images in the current directory but exclude images within subfolders.

   • Choose With subfolders if you want to select all images in the current directory including images within subfolders.

Perform an action based on the search result or filtered images

1. Search or filter images.

2. In the display of results, you can do any of the above three options:

   • Select a single image to perform an action
