Once the trash has been emptied the images are gone for good, so be
careful! Images can be instantly and permanently deleted by selecting
them and then pressing “Control-Delete” on the keyboard; be careful
when using this feature! Once an image is deleted it is gone forever.

Previewing

While the Capture Collection is a good place to evaluate images quickly,
the Preview Window will provide a much better view of an image.
To preview an image, choose one of the images from the Capture
Collection and click it.

The thumbnail will then open in the larger Preview Window.
The Preview Window provides improved image evaluation, as well as
tools for adjustment of exposure, contrast and sharpness of the photo.

Function Window/Function Tabs

On the right hand side of the main interface is the Function Window.
The options in this area change depending on which of the function tabs
is selected. The tabs are: Preview, Gray Balance, Exposure, Focus and
Develop. The use of these tabs will be covered later in this manual.

Editing

The Capture Collection is similar to a contact sheet. It displays thumbnail
images of all of the photos taken with the camera. Two captures can be
evaluated side by side. This is done by selecting the side by side icon
from the tool bar. (C.f. Tools section)

The main purpose of side by side evaluation is to make it easy to select
the best capture from a range of almost identical capture files.

Deleting Images

To delete an image, simply drag the thumbnail into the “Trash” tab or
click the thumbnail and press the “Delete” key on the keyboard.
The image will now be held in the Trash Capture Collection. Click the
“Trash” icon at the top of the screen to remove all of the trashed images.
This safety measure helps prevent accidental deletion of images.
To “un-delete” an image, drag it out of the Trash tab and back into
one of the Capture Collection.
