Where to find Final Selection
To perform Final Selection in Gamma, go to Task in the top menu and select Final Selection.
This brings up a kanban board with three columns: To Do, Doing, and Done. Start tasks in To Do, and they’ll shift to Doing when active.
Note: Only Account Owners and Admins can release assigned tasks.
Final Selection on a generic pre-selection
If the workflow calls for uploading a standard set of images, you will need to drag the final images into the correct slots in the Style Guide for that product. If the photography team has applied star ratings, use them to refine your image selections.
You can toggle between Filmstrip and Single views as you work. Use Cmd/Ctrl + A to select all images and press Esc to deselect.
Note:
Multiple image selection isn’t available in cropping mode.
Adjust Filmstrip height by holding and dragging the resize handler.
Once all images are placed in the Style Guide, hit Continue in the top right corner to move to the next task.
Final Selection on pre-selection by position
If the workflow requires the photographer to upload a set of images by position in the Style Guide, you’ll perform the final selection for each position.
Press the spacebar to view an image full-screen, hover over the image, and press S on your keyboard to select until you have the complete suite for all positions. When you're ready, click Continue in the top right.

How to add instructions and markings
With Creative Force, you can add notes and mark images for the Post-Production team—available only if the workflow includes a post-production step.
You can leave instructions on any image assigned to a position. Select multiple images by holding Ctrl or Cmd, then either press ALT + I, right-click, or use the three-dot menu to choose Mark all for instructions. Once all required images are marked, click Continue to move forward.
If there’s a post-production step after Final Selection, clicking Continue or Reject will take you to the mark-up screen, where you can add your instructions. Learn more about our mark-up screen here.
Here, you can edit any previous notes or markings from the pre-selection phase in Kelvin. If a comment is tied to a marking, you can remove the marking and either keep or delete the comment.
Once all instructions are complete, click Continue to finish up.
Upload Images in Final Selection
Creative Force lets you upload additional images as needed, allowing you to adjust the image suite linked to a product without resetting it to the photography step.
Supported file types include: JPG, JPEG, PNG, PSD, TIF, TIFF, CR2, CR3, CRW, NEF, NRW, PDF, EPS, and ARW.
