automatic mode, a background process analyzes and assigns Smart tags to the assets.
Assign smart tags manually
1. In the Media view, select the media files to which you want to attach a smart tag. (To select more than one file, Ctrl-click/Cmd-click the files.)
2. To attach a single tag to a single media file, do one of the following:
Drag the tag from the Smart Tags panel onto the selected media file.
Drag the media files onto the tag in the Smart Tags panel.
3. To attach Smart Tags to multiple media files, do one of the following:

Find media files by their keyword tags
1. In the Search bar, begin typing the name of the tag in the box, a list of tags that match the typed letters is populated. For example, if you
type D, all tags beginning with the letter D are displayed. You can select the required tag.
The application finds all media files that have any of those keyword tags attached. If you select a keyword tag category or subcategory that
itself has nested subcategories, the application displays all photos in the hierarchy. For example, assume that you have a ‘Wedding’
subcategory that contains the keyword tags ‘Bride’ and ‘Groom’. If you select the ‘Wedding’ subcategory, Elements Organizer displays all
media files tagged ‘Bride’ or ‘Groom’.
2. You can also click on the tag to search for the media associated with that tag. After you click on the tag, the advanced search menu is
displayed. You can modify the searches and select other keyword tags to search for the associated media.
Create and apply tags quickly
The Keyword Tags textbox in Elements Organizer interface enables creating and applying tags quickly. This textbox displays a subset of the list of
existing tags based on the letter you type. For example, if you type the letter S, the textbox populates a list of tags beginning with the letter S. You
can view a subset of this list. You can select an existing tag from this list and apply it to the selected set of assets or create a tag and apply it.
