[Leica] OT LR question

[hopsternew at gmail.com (Geoff Hopkinson)]

Tina have you been able to filter by file size in Lightroom then?
File size is not one of the pre-made options in metadata on the filter bar
and not a sort option from the toolbar (at bottom of content area).
You have worked out how to add to those?
I know that you can see file sizes in the metadata panel to right but not
how to use those values to sort with the filter.
I couldn't find anything in the Martin Evening bible not ther Adobe LR
forum.





Cheers
Geoff
