55
56 <p>Geeqie provides the ability to build lists of images, regardless of the location of the files on disk.</p>

61
62 <p class="gq-collections-6"><span class="gq-collections-5">The collection window</span>
63 </p>
64
65 <p>A collection window displays the contents of a collection. It allows the collection to be modified and access to the images contained in the collection.</p>
66
67 <p>To open a new empty collection window press C or select New collection from the file menu.</p>
68
69 <p>To open an existing collection, press O or select Open collection from the file menu. A dialog will appear requesting the location of the collection file. A window will the open containing the selected collection. Recently opened or saved collections can also be opened by selecting the collection's file name from the Open recent sub menu of the file menu.</p>
70
71 <p>The collection window consists of a pane to display the contents of the collection, and a status bar along the bottom of the window.</p>
72
73 <p><u>Icon pane</u>
74 </p>
75
76 <p class="gq-collections-7">The icon pane displays images contained in the collection as thumbnails in a grid, by default the file names also appear below each thumbnail.</p>
77
78 <p class="gq-collections-7">The Icon pane works exactly like the Icon view mode of the <a href="main_window_file_pane.html">file pane</a> in a main window. But with the addition that the contents of the collection can be organized with drag and drop.</p>
79
80 <p class="gq-collections-7">A <b>context menu</b> is available for the icon pane by right clicking the mouse or pressing the Menu key.</p>
