			== Rating ==

			RawTherapee allows you to rank images between 0 and 5 stars. RawTherapee 5.7 introduced support for reading the rating information stored within the image's metadata, e.g. as set by your camera or by other software, and showing it through its star rank system.

			Metadata tags used for conveying the rating have evolved over the years, and RawTherapee prioritizes them in the following ascending order:
			# Exif <code>rating</code>
			# XMP <code>rating</code>
			# PP3 <code>rank</code>

			That is, if an image has an Exif <code>rating</code> tag with value 1 and an XMP <code>rating</code> tag with value 2, then RawTherapee will show 2 stars. If you then rank it 3 stars in RawTherapee, the 3-star rating is shown in RawTherapee's File Browser and Filmstrip.

			Note that RawTherapee's star ranking does not get exported to saved images. That is, if you saved the image from the above example, the saved file would contain <code>Exif:rating=1</code> and <code>XMP:rating=2</code> if you set "metadata copy mode" to "copy unchanged" - it would not reflect the 3-star rank anywhere. Furthermore, if you set "metadata copy mode" to "apply modifications", the saved file would only contain <code>Exif:rating=1</code>, as editing XMP is unsupported so it gets stripped.

			== Deleting Files ==
			As RawTherapee is a cross-platform program, it has its own trash bin, independent from your system one if you have a system one.

			=== Using the Trash Bin ===
			To move files to the trash bin, either use the "Move to trash" button [[File:Trash.png]] in the top-right corner of each thumbnail, or right-click on a selection of files and choose "File operations > Move to trash". These files are then marked as being in the trash bin, but they are not deleted from your hard drive.
			* To hide all files which are marked as being in the trash bin, click the "Show only non-deleted images" button [[File:Trash-hide-deleted.png]] in the top toolbar.
			* To see the contents of the trash bin, click the "Show contents of trash" button [[File:Trash-show-full.png]].
			* While you are viewing the contents of the trash bin a new "Permanently delete the files from trash" button [[File:Trash.png]] appears to the left of the thumbnails - use it to delete all trashed files from your hard drive.
			* Click on the "Clear all filters" button [[File:Filterclear.png]] to return to the default view.

			=== Deleting From the Hard Drive ===
			To delete files from your hard drive without using the trash bin, just right-click on a file or on a selection of files and choose "File operations > Delete" or "Delete with output from queue". Both options delete the selected photo and its sidecar file from your hard drive, but "Delete with output from queue" also deletes the saved image whose filename matches the template which you currently have set in the Queue tab, in the "Use template:" field.

DrSlony: Replaced "albums" with "folders"

	When you open a folder, RawTherapee will generate thumbnails of the photos in that folder in the central panel. The first time you open a folder full of raw photo files ~~(we'll refer to folders full of photos as "albums")~~, RawTherapee will read each file and create a thumbnail based on the embedded JPEG image (every raw photo has an embedded JPEG image, sometimes even a few of various sizes). This can take some time on ~~larger albums~~, but it only happens the first time you open ~~an album~~. All subsequent times you go to a previously opened folder, RawTherapee will read the thumbnails from its cache if they exist, and this will be much faster than the first time you opened that folder.

	The JPEG image embedded in each raw photo is identical to the out-of-camera JPEG image you would get if you shot in JPEG mode (or in "RAW+JPEG" mode). This JPEG is not representative of the actual raw data in that photo, because your camera applies all kinds of tweaks to the JPEG image, such as increasing the exposure a bit, increasing saturation, contrast, sharpening, etc.		The JPEG image embedded in each raw photo is identical to the out-of-camera JPEG image you would get if you shot in JPEG mode (or in "RAW+JPEG" mode).
