Adobe Photoshop CS5 One-on-One

(やまだぃちぅ) #1

  • Up in the applications bar, click the word Filmstrip, located
    by default between Essentials and Metadata. The Bridge
    switches to a predefined workspace that displays a slim,
    horizontal Content panel along the bottom of the screen
    with a large Preview panel above it.

  • Having the Content panel at the bottom of the screen com-
    promises the size of portrait-style (vertical) images with-
    out helping us much with the landscape-style (horizontal)
    ones. Better to run the thumbnails in a vertical column
    on the right side of the screen. To open up such a column,
    double-click the vertical divider you hid in Step 6 (page 12).

  • Now drag the Content panel tab from the bottom of the
    screen and drop it into the empty column.

  • Drag the vertical divider to the right to make the Content
    panel narrower, so the thumbnails line up in a single column,
    as in Figure 1-13. This maximizes the space dedicated to
    the Preview panel, which we’ll need for landscape photos.
    Assuming that your reordered thumbnails remain selected, you
    should now see enlarged views of all seven images in the Preview
    panel (again, witness Figure 1-13), thus making comparisons
    a snap. In contrast, the previous version of the Bridge allowed
    you to preview just one image at a time.
