USING ELEMENTS 9 ORGANIZER

Tagging and organizing photos and videos

Last updated 9/12/2011

Elements Organizer Albums are like physical photo albums where you can store and organize photos in groups of your

choosing. For example, you can create an album called “Ten Best Vacation Photos” and organize the photos from the

tenth best photo to the very best photo. You can display the album in Full Screen view or make a project based on that

album.

When search for an album is active, each photo in an album has a number in the upper-left corner, representing its

order. You can drag the photos within an album to arrange them into any order you want. You can add a photo to

more than one album. For example, the same photo might appear as the first photo in one album and the last photo in

another.

You can organize albums in groups. You also can create multiple levels of album categories. For example, you can have

an album category titled, “My Asia Trip,” containing the album “Ten Best Japan Photos,” along with another album

called “Ten Best China Photos,” and so on for each country in Asia you visited.

You can create smart albums by setting criteria for photos to be included in them, rather than by manually selecting

specific photos. The contents of smart albums are automatically updated as matching criteria are added to photos. For

example, if you create a smart album that includes all photos with the keyword tag, “Chiara,” additional photos are

added to that album as you give them that keyword tag.
