Adding Photos to the Media Library

Photo Organizer can import picture files from any drive that can be accessed by your
computer: hard drives, floppy drives, CD-ROM drives, and network drives. It can
also import pictures directly from a scanner.

To add photos to the Media Library:

1.

Click the Get tab and click an icon representing the import source: Files (on a hard
drive), Compact Disc, Floppy, PhotoMail or Scanner. You can also choose File,
Import Files or Action, Get from the main menu.

2.

A series of questions guides you through the import process for each source.

3.

The final screen in the import process selects the destination for the imported
pictures. The pictures can be placed on the Light Table, which is a temporary
workspace for organizing and editing pictures, or in an album. You may choose an
existing album or create a new album.

Viewing Pictures

Pictures can be viewed on four different tabs: Gallery, Presenter, Catalog, and
Details. The different views can be accessed by clicking a tab name at the bottom of
the Viewer pane or by choosing View from the main menu.

 

Gallery is the default view. Pictures are displayed as thumbnails.

¡

Presenter displays enlarged pictures, one at a time. Thumbnails of all pictures
are displayed in a film strip. Display, rotation, and notes are controlled using
the buttons at the bottom of the window.

¢

Catalog displays a thumbnail of each picture, along with the picture’s title,
author, date created, comments, keywords and classifications. Every field,
except the file path, can be edited directly on the screen.

£

Details displays information in a table format, with no thumbnails. Each
picture has a row of information.
