- Hide the panels on the left. Double-click the vertical divider
along the left edge of the Preview panel to hide the panels on
the left side of the Bridge window and devote more room to the
large image preview. - Advance from one image to the next. Click the top image in
the content browser and see an expanded version of the image
in the Preview panel. Press the � or � key to select the next
thumbnail in the filmstrip. - Single out the exemplary images. You can mark images you
like for later attention. The Bridge lets you assign each image a
specific level of importance by rating it from one to five stars.
For example, let’s say you gauge the shot of the blue and white
butterfly—filename Butterflying_02.jpg—to be a four-star
image. Here what I want you to do:- Choose Label→★★★★, as in Figure 1-14.
- In the row of five dots immediately below the selected
thumbnail, click the fourth dot. The ····· changes to ★★★★. - Press Ctrl+4 (�-4 on the Mac).
PeaRl Of WISDOm
Perhaps my favorite feature of work spaces that
was changed back in Bridge CS4 is that they
update automatically to reflect your changes.
So if you were to switch to your Big Thumbs w/
Panels workspace and then return to Filmstrip,
you would see your modified workspace, not the
unhelpful original one. In my experience, this
means I don’t hesitate to switch workspaces for
fear of messing every thing up, as I might have in
CS3 or earlier.
