Figure 1-9: In Standard Edit mode, the Shortcuts bar provides tools and viewing options.
Depending on your editing mode, such as Standard Edit, Quick Fix, or one of
the other viewing modes, the Shortcuts bar changes to provide different tools
and buttons. Figure 1-9 shows how the Shortcuts bar appears when viewed in
Standard Edit mode.
The Shortcuts bar contains tools and buttons grouped together as follows:
The first group offers quick access to file management commands. You
can create a new file, open a file, or save a file by clicking one of the first
three tools in the Shortcuts bar.
Click the Print tool to print a file or the Attach to E-mail tool to attach
an open document to a new e-mail message in your default e-mail
program.
Click Undo to undo an edit and Redo to redo an undone edit.
For a quick jump to all the wonderful organizing features provided in
Elements, such as creating slide shows, calendars, and postcards or
writing to video discs, click the Create button. Click Photo Browser to
open the Photo Browser window, where you can easily manage your
pictures. The Date View shows you a calendar, where you can add
thumbnails of your pictures.
Changing Workspaces
When you’re in Standard Edit mode, discussed in preceding sections, you can
apply any kind of edits to a picture, improve the appearance, and apply all
that Elements offers you. This mode is the richest editor in Elements in terms
of accessing all features. Because Elements has so many different kinds of edit-
ing opportunities, the program offers you other workspace views, tailored to
the kinds of tasks people typically want to perform.
