Views in Elements Organizer
There are four views in Elements Organizer. The Views tab helps you organize and view your media based on the people present in the photos,
places they were taken, and the events that are associated with the photos.
Initially, when you import media, the files are displayed in the Media view. You can then mark faces in the photos, identify places the photograph
was taken at, and create event stacks. The four views are listed here:
Views in Elements Organizer
The various media files are displayed in this view. You can view the files in this view, fix photos using Instant fix option, view information
about specific files using Tags/info option, and perform other operations.
The people appearing on your photos can be marked. People’s view helps you arrange stacks based on the people identified in the
photos.
Photographs have special association with the places they are taken at, you can tag locations to your photos in the Places view.
You can create stacks of events containing pictures of that event. For example, you can create an event Dan’s birthday and tag photos
of that event.
Use context menus
You can use context menus in both the Editor and Elements Organizer workspaces. Context-sensitive menus display commands that are relevant
to the active tool, selection, or panel.
1. Position the pointer over an image or panel item.
Not all panels offer context menus.
2. Right-click/Ctrl-click and choose a command from the menu.
Using keyboard commands and modifier keys
You can use keyboard shortcuts in both the Editor and Elements Organizer workspaces. Keyboard commands let you quickly execute commands
without using a menu; modifier keys let you alter how a tool operates. When available, the keyboard command appears to the right of the
command name in the menu.
