Operation Manual

Heads-Up Displays
Heads-up displays, or HUDs, are collections of related tools and controls contained in a
floating window. You can move a HUD as far as your display screen extends. You can use
HUDs in all the main window layouts and views as well as in Full Screen view.
Inspector HUD
The Inspector HUD provides access to three inspector panes: the Library pane, the
Metadata pane, and the Adjustments pane. The controls in the Inspector HUD are the
same as those in the inspectors in the Inspector pane. You can use the HUD in the Aperture
main window or in Full Screen view. To open a pane, click the corresponding button at
the top of the Inspector HUD. For more information about the controls in the specific
inspectors, see Inspector Pane.
For more information about working with projects in the Library inspector or the Library
pane of the Inspector HUD, see Working with the Aperture Library.
For more information about working with metadata in the Metadata inspector or the
Metadata pane of the Inspector HUD, see Working with Metadata.
For more information about working with adjustments in the Adjustments inspector or
the Adjustments pane of the Inspector HUD, see An Overview of Image Adjustments,
Making Image Adjustments, and Making Brushed Adjustments.
