Star ratings and keep awake during stacking

Version 2026.08.16

Star ratings in the Library!
Rate images 0–5 with the number keys, filter the filmstrip by rating, and auto-advance as you go (configurable in Preferences). Ratings are stored in an open/standard way (.xmp sidecars for RAW, embedded in TIFF/JPEG), so they travel with your files. Fully two-way compatible with Lightroom and most other editors.

Keep your computer awake while stacking
New option that keeps your computer awake during Autostack or manual stacking, on by default.

Disable slow-stack notifications
New option to turn off slow-stack notifications, set from the banner itself or Preferences.

Retouch Left/Right arrows would sometimes stop navigating source frames. I stopped the stopping, so now they won’t stop.
