The Organizer, Menu

by Menu

This appendix gives you a quick tour of the main menus in the Organizer. The

Organizer has two main windows: Photo Browser and Date View. Both offer the

same menu choices—everything listed here is available in either window. There are

keyboard shortcuts and buttons in the Organizer windows that give you access to

many of these menu items. When there’s an alternate method, it’s listed in the text.

In addition to the main menus discussed here, the Organizer is chock full of short-

cut (also called contextual) menus. You can right-click almost anywhere in the

Organizer, and you’ll get a menu with several options specific to the object you

clicked. Click a tag, for instance, and you get a menu that includes choices for edit-

ing the tag or changing it to a category.

NOTE If you also have Premiere Elements or Photoshop installed, you’ll see a few additional

menu choices not listed here.

File Menu

This menu is where you import photos, start new projects, manage your catalogs,

and export your photos. It’s also where you quit the Organizer when you’re done.

Get Photos

Here’s where you import photos into the Organizer. You can tell Elements to find

and import photos from:

• A camera or card reader (or press Ctrl+G).

• A scanner (or press Ctrl+U).
