Title: How to convert 5 stars to 10 stars rating?
Post by: Grenache on May 20, 2017, 08:48:07 am

This is probably trivial, but I can't figure it out. How do I convert/copy my five stars ratings to the ten stars field so they get doubled-up? I want three stars to be six stars and so on.

Select the files you want to change, Click The Action Window > Tags
Click the new ratings field and type:

Code: [Select]

In the top left of the Tag window, click the icon, menu should drop down. You can use "Show All Tags" or "Also Show" > select field.
or if the field is showing in the details window, click "Show Tags in Current View"

Did you create the field?
Options (CTRL + O) > Library & Folders > ... Manage Library Fields > Add New Fields (name it what you want)
