Status labels in VeryBusy help you and your collaborators quickly understand the status of images within projects.

Adding Labels to Images and/or Folders

Assigning a label to a single image:

  1. Click on the image thumbnail "Add Label".

  2. Select from one or multiple of the existing labels, or click Create Label.

  3. Once you create the label, it will be automatically assigned to the image

Edit or delete a label

  1. Click the label on the thumbnail

  2. Hover over the label

    1. Pencil Icon will allow you to change the name and color

    2. Trashcan Icon will delete it from your list of labels and any assets to which it was applied

Assigning labels to multiple assets:

  1. Select many assets at once to update labels faster.

  2. Ctrl/Cmd + click to select the assets you want to label.

  3. Click Add label at the bottom of the screen or in the right-click menu.

Tip: Find images instantly – Use filters to search by one or multiple labels. Need precision? Toggle "Match All" to display only assets that include every selected label.


Removing Labels

To remove a label from a single asset:

  1. Select the image thumbnail.

  2. Click on the label name.

  3. Select the label name from the list to remove it.

To remove a label from multiple assets:

Adding Label Groups to Your Workspace

You can add Label Groups to your workspace, enabling you to load label templates easily when starting new projects within your workspace. Here’s how to do it:

  1. Go to your avatar or initials at the top left of the interface.

  2. Click Settings.

  3. Select the workspace to which you want to add the label group (from the left-hand panel, below your profile).

  4. Select the Projects tab.

  5. Scroll down to the Label Groups section and add your label group.

  6. Navigate back to the project you're working on (must have been made in the same workspace)

  7. Click the label that is applied or click "Add Label"

  8. Select "Add Group" to load the label group into the project

This feature simplifies the process of applying consistent labels across your projects.

Tip: You can also reuse these templates and add them at project creation for better consistency across projects.
