"(Folder) Description" is a one-line, searchable description that can be used for patient folders and subfolders.
"(Folder) Memo" is a non-searchable, multi-line note that can be set to patient folders.
"Tag" is a keyword applied to a photo.
"Class" is to differentiate certain standard types of orthodontic photos. (e.g. facial_right)

List View Screen (D)
This section displays the information and files related to the selected patient or folder.
When selecting a root folder, the list and information of patient folders are displayed in card format. When selecting a specific patient, all subfolders and photos for that patient are displayed at once.
In the upper patient bar, you can view the name, description, and memo for the patient folder. You can also access 'patient folder-level' features such as external folder or program links, AI auto-arrangement, etc.
In the list section, all subfolders and individual photos within the selected patient folder are displayed at once.
Hovering the mouse over a photo allows for quick rotation or flipping, and you can right-click to view additional menu options.
Action Panel (E)
This section displays information and possible actions as buttons for the selected patient folder or photo files.
The displayed buttons vary depending on whether the selected item is a folder or a photo, and whether it is a single or multiple selection.
