If you want to adjust the size of the photo further, you will need to click the red circle (cancel current operation) which will return the photo to its default size, then double click on the photo to get the sizing slider back. After changing the size of a photo, the sizing slider stops working. You can also click on the photo and drag to reposition it. When you apply a Frame to your photo you will get controls that adjust the size of the photo inside the frame. Having these icons located in different locations is a bit conterintuitive. These two icons are often found in different locations depending on what you are doing, in the menu bar at the top of the interface, sometimes appearing beneath the photo and in other cases the two icons are found incorporated into the effects controls. You can also hit the 'escape' key to remove the effect. If you have checked the green check mark and then decide to remove the effect, use Command Z from the keyboard. If you are happy with the results, click on the green check mark to set it. Using Command Z ('Undo') from the keyboard does not work when the green check mark and red circle are present. If you want to remove what has been applied, click on the red circle. There are a number of functions in Elements, that when applied, produce a green arrow (commit current operation) along side a red circle (cancel current operation). Below right, Content has been selected showing a number of different content categories that are available. When you have Effects selected four categories become available Filters, Layer Styles, Photo Effects and All.Įffects > Layer Styles, is selected below left, showing the Styles that are available. With Full, two additional tabs become available, Effects and Content.

As I stated, when in Full mode, all of Element's tools are available from both the Tool Box and from the menu bar at the top of the interface. Interestingly, in both Quick and Guided while there is a 'Reset' button at the bottom of the panel to undo anything that you might have applied, in the 'Full' mode there is no 'Reset' button.įull. 'Guided' offers step by step instructions and supplies the tools that are required for the chore at hand. The 'Quick' tab enables simple photographic adjustments, not unlike the controls found in iPhoto, using simple sliders. 'Full' offers access to all of the tools and effects much like Photoshop. When in Edit mode there is the option of three different levels of Editing Full, Quick and Guided. At the very top are three tabs Edit, Create and Share, below right, with the Edit tab selected (lighter gray background). All of the remaining palettes and controls are stacked in a column on the right hand side. The Elements' Tool Box is positioned along the left hand side of the interface, shown below left in two columns.

In the Windows version of Elements you can drag photos at any time, from anywhere, into the Project bin, but this feature does not work in the Mac version. To switch from one photo to another in the main window, simply click on the photo in the Project bin. Any photos that you have opened in Elements will be displayed in the Project bin. The default interface is a basic 'all in one' interface, shown below.Īt the very bottom of the Element's interface is the Project bin. There are a number of different ways that you can run Elements. I will get back to the tools later in this article, but for now, I want to go over the Elements' interface as it is rather different from Photoshop and offers different levels of abilities and complexity depending on the user's skills and needs.

The question here is 'for Final Cut Pro users, does Photoshop Elements ($79.99) contain enough tools and features to be used in place of the more expensive Photoshop?' With a multitude of new Final Cut Pro users, many people want or need Photoshop but balk at paying $699.00 for the application. So, why am I looking at PS Elements? The reason is quite simple. In the past decade FCP has received a number of updates and there are now a large number of third party plugins that do much of this for us right inside FCP.īut having said that, I still use Photoshop every day for both still work as well as for video. We also used PS to prep photographs so that they would have the correct aspect ratio for video. For the first number of years I did photo enhancement for my photography business but about 10 years ago I started working with Final Cut Pro and in those early days FCP users relied heavily on Photoshop to create all of the text and titles that we used in FCP, including creating credit rolls. I'm a still photographer and I purchased my first Mac to run Photoshop almost 17 years ago. Internet connection required for Internet-based services
