Operation Manual

When you click the disclosure triangle beside the library’s name in the Library inspector,
the following items appear:
• Projects: Select this item to have all the projects in the library appear in Projects view
in place of the Browser and Viewer. Each project is represented by a single thumbnail.
You can position the pointer over a project thumbnail and drag to quickly skim the
images in the project. When you hold down the Control key and click a project
thumbnail, a shortcut menu appears that allows you to create a new project, delete
the project, import files into the project, export the project as a library, set the currently
displayed image as the key photo that represents the project, empty the Aperture
Trash, or play each image in the project in a slideshow. Double-click the project
thumbnail to see the photos in the Viewer.
For more information about Projects view, see Working in Projects View.
• Photos: Select this item to see all images in the library. All images in the library are
displayed in the Browser as thumbnails. Select a thumbnail in the Browser to view it
in the Viewer.
• Faces: Select this item to view people identified in images and tracked by Aperture in
the library. Click the Info button on a snapshot to show the Info HUD. The Info HUD
provides the name of the person, how many photos in the library contain the person,
when the photos were shot, and the person’s full name and email address (if you
entered them). Click the View Photos button in the HUD to view all the photos the
person appears in and any photos the person might appear in.
For more information about working with Faces, see Organizing Images with Faces.
• Places: Select this item to view the locations assigned to images in the library on a
map.
For more information about working with Places, see Locating and Organizing Images
with Places.
• Flagged: Select this item to see all the images in the library that have been flagged.
The thumbnails for all flagged images appear in the Browser. Select a thumbnail in the
Browser to view it in the Viewer.
