Compare & pick shortcuts
Keyboard shortcuts for Compare & pick: move between the photos, drop the weaker ones, lock the keepers and page through the bench without the mouse.
The comparer picks the best K out of N: what is on screen plus the
bench below are the survivors, Del kicks an image out, and nothing
actually happens until the confirm button — which says exactly what
removal means here ("Keep 23 — remove 17 from album"). Cancel walks
away with nothing changed.
Clicking a slot highlights it; clicking a bench image swaps it into the highlighted slot.
