4.1   Source List

Drag files here to import them. You can drop onto a folder or tag source to import files directly into that folder or to import them and assign that tag. You can use Exposé mid-drag to bring a window to the front and reveal the source that you want to drop onto.

The top-level sources are:

Library
Records
All the records in the library, from all the folders. Click the triangle next to the Records source to see folder sources matching the folders in the library’s Files folder in the Finder. You can drag and drop files and folders to re-arrange their hierarchy.
Trash
The records that have been deleted from the library, but which are still available until you empty the trash. This corresponds to the library’s Trash folder in the Finder.
Search For
Recently Added
The last 25 files that were added to the library.
Recently Modified
The last 25 files that were modified within EagleFiler or using another application.
Unfiled
Files that are at the top level of the library, e.g. ones that are directly in the Files folder rather than in one of its sub-folders.
Untagged
Files anywhere in the library that do not have any tags.
Tags
Tag sources behave like playlists in iTunes or albums in iPhoto. Select a tag source to view all the records with that tag. You can drag records onto a tag source to assign that tag to them. Each record may appear in any number of tag sources. Deleting a record from a tag source unassigns that tag; the record remains in the library. You can drag and drop tags to re-arrange their hierarchy.

You can select more than one source at a time to view all their contents at once. You can type the first few letters of a source’s name to select it. Press Return to open the selected source in a new window, or Enter to edit its name.
