I am a recent Mac convert and am trying to adjust my cataloging workflow from ACDSee to Lightroom.
In ACDSee, I could create categories and assign images to them. When I selected an image, the categories to which the image was assigned would light up an icon to show that they were in fact containers for the selected image.
In the Lightroom system, the closest analog seems to be 'Collections'. I have created a bunch of collections but I am increasingly frustrated by the inability to see which collections to which an image is assigned. So far it seems that the only way to find out if an image is in a particular collection is to click on the collection and see if the image is in there. Surely there's another way, without having to change the contents of the grid view?
