| ->> In Photo Mechanic 4.4.3.2 on OS X, is there a way to display or select only a certain file type (i.e. JPG or TIF)? I shot RAW + JPG and would find that feature very handy... Thanks. |

->> Under the View menu you can view just jpegs or the jpeg+RAW.
Usually I just view the jpegs but when I need the extra RAW conversion I hit the Apple+J keys and it throws up the RAW files as well. The one I need is next to the jpeg already selected. |

->> - Go to the "sort by" dropdown menu, select Edit Custom
- In the dialog that pops up, enter "{type}" in the Primary field and "{filenamebase}" in the Secondary field (minus quotations)
- Click the lightning bolt in the lower left corner of the dialog and select Save... |
