Preferences
To access PowerPhotos’ preferences, click on the "PowerPhotos" menu and select "Preferences". There you will find the following settings:
General
- Quit PowerPhotos after closing the main window: checking this box will keep PowerPhotos running even if you close the main window. This can be useful if you wish to use the dock menu to have quick access to your photo libraries.
- Use small icons in library list: if you have a large number of libraries in your library list and would like to be able to see more of them at a time, checking this box will reduce the size of each row in the list, allowing more libraries to fit vertically in the list.
- Show exclamation mark badges on missing photos: enabling this option will cause a small exclamation mark icon to appear in the lower left corner of any photo that can’t be found at the location in the library where Photos says it should be. There isn’t any direct way to fix such missing photos though, so if you’d rather not be bothered by these warning icons, you can just leave this option disabled.
- Warn when removing a library: by default, you will be given a warning message when attempting to remove a library, confirming that you really want to remove it. You can uncheck this option if you would not like this warning to appear.
- Automatically check for updates: checking this box will make PowerPhotos check on the internet for new versions at regular intervals. You can also check for updates manually using the "Check For Updates" menu item.
