Showing and Hiding the Filmstrip

You can move the filmstrip to any location on your primary display. But there are times,
especially when viewing an image at full resolution, that you cannot get the filmstrip
off your image. The filmstrip includes controls that let you define when the filmstrip
appears. You can also specify how the filmstrip fits on the screen in relation to the
image or images you are viewing.

There are several ways you can configure the filmstrip. You can choose to always show
the filmstrip, show it based on image dimensions, or have Aperture automatically fit
the images and filmstrip on your screens without overlapping.

To always show the filmstrip, do one of the following:

m

Choose On from the Viewer Mode pop-up menu.

m

Press Control-slash (/).

To only show the filmstrip when you move the pointer over its docked position,
do one of the following:

m

Choose Auto from the Viewer Mode pop-up menu.

m

Press Control-period (.).

To have Aperture automatically fit the image and the filmstrip on the screen,
do one of the following:

m

Choose Avoid from the Viewer Mode pop-up menu.

m

Press Control-V.

Aperture fits your images and the filmstrip on your screen, keeping the filmstrip and
your images from overlapping.

main window.
