If you already have marked photos (pick, color, rating), to filter them 
you click on the filter symbol in the (bottom) statusbar; it opens 
automatically the filter sidepane to the right. Clicking on the 
respective labels there will show only the thumbnails with the 
corresponding criteria fulfilled.

When in preview-mode with thumbnail-strip showing, the color is visible 
around the thumbnail. Bizarrely the pick-labels do not (I had not 
remarked before) and there seems to be no way to do so in the settings. 
A textual form is shown in the tooltips (e.g. 'Rejected') but not as a 
symbol. But to have them show in preview-mode without thumbnails is over 
my competence-level.
Unfortunately I'm not using the appimage regularly, so I may not have 
exactly the same layout.
