Setting a Custom Cover Photo

Setting a custom cover photo for Folders, Albums, Events, and People helps you see at-a-glance which photos are in a particular container and make your Mylio Photos Library more enjoyable to browse.

1. Select a photo to use as a cover photo.
2. Right-click on the image (or click or tap the Actions menu ), choose Set Cover, and select Folder, Album, or Event.
3. Choose the specific Folder, Album or Event where you want the new cover photo, and then click or tap the Set button.

*TIP: To set a custom cover photo for a person, click or tap on the People icon in the left sidebar. Navigate to the person you want to select a cover photo for, and double-click or tap on their collection. Right-click on the image you wish to use as the cover photo (or click or tap the Actions menu ), choose Set Cover, and select People.

Set a Cover Photo using Flutter

Flutter allows you to quickly see the contents of any Folder, Album, or Person by swiping your finger over the container from right to left on touchscreen devices, two-finger swiping from right to left on trackpads or use your traditional mouse’s scroll wheel while holding the Shift key.

1. Locate a folder, album, event or person you would like to change the cover for.
2. Use Flutter to locate the image you want to use as a cover photo.
3. When you stop on an image, a pin icon will appear in the lower left of the photo.
4. Click or tap the pin icon to set the photo as the new cover photo.

*TIP: Any image in your Mylio Photos Library can be used as a cover photo and does not have to be contained in the Event, Folder, or Album for which you are choosing the cover photo.
