1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,516
Get an insider look at the many icons and options in the bars of bridge. 

2
00:00:07,516 --> 00:00:12,604
The first bar we will take a look at is the application bar.

3
00:00:12,605 --> 00:00:18,101
The first icons in this application bar are the forward and back icons.

4
00:00:18,102 --> 00:00:24,827
These icons are similar to the ones that you would find in your browser on your computer.

5
00:00:24,827 --> 00:00:31,477
How they work is you would click on a file inside one of the content tabs.

6
00:00:31,478 --> 00:00:37,545
Let's say I'm going to open my scrapbook pages and then I decide I want to go back. So I click on the

7
00:00:37,546 --> 00:00:43,889
back icon and I'm back where I started. Earlier in this class we talked about

8
00:00:43,889 --> 00:00:50,030
the breadcrumb trail that's in the path bar of Adobe Bridge. If by chance you wanted

9
00:00:50,030 --> 00:00:56,564
to close the path bar, you would also be able to see this breadcrumb trail by clicking

10
00:00:56,565 --> 00:01:02,807
on the down arrow in the application bar. And here you will not only see the

11
00:01:02,807 --> 00:01:08,885
breadcrumb trail, but you'll also see the folders and files that you have pinned

12
00:01:08,885 --> 00:01:15,455
in the favorites panel. Next to this single drop-down arrow

13
00:01:15,455 --> 00:01:21,843
is a recent icon. You can remember that this is the recent icon because it has a little

14
00:01:21,844 --> 00:01:27,994
clock showing you that you can turn back the clock. Click on that drop-down icon

15
00:01:27,994 --> 00:01:34,856
and you have several choices. The first one is to reveal all recent files.

16
00:01:34,857 --> 00:01:41,049
If I click on that, in the current content tab, I'm going to see a list

17
00:01:41,050 --> 00:01:47,418
of all the files that I've recently opened. So I was recently working on this scrapbook

18
00:01:47,418 --> 00:01:53,455
page. I was creating some slices for this particular lesson. And I was

19
00:01:53,456 --> 00:02:00,448
also looking at this image of a bird and working on it in Photoshop.

20
00:02:00,449 --> 00:02:06,521
Again, I can click on the back icon to go back where I started. So let's see what else is

21
00:02:06,521 --> 00:02:13,478
in this recent drop-down menu. You will see an option to click on Adobe Photoshop

22
00:02:13,478 --> 00:02:19,673
and you can see just the Photoshop files that you've opened. Also in the reveal drop-down

23
00:02:19,674 --> 00:02:25,959
menu, you will see a chronological list of the recent folders that you've navigated

24
00:02:25,959 --> 00:02:32,320
through. This will also show you searches and filters. The clear options

25
00:02:32,321 --> 00:02:38,448
at the bottom of this menu are helpful if you're planning to start a big project. You may

26
00:02:38,449 --> 00:02:44,567
want to clear all the recent files and folders from this menu and that might help you navigate

27
00:02:44,568 --> 00:02:50,574
through things and help you to find things faster. For example, clicking on reveal all

28
00:02:50,574 --> 00:02:56,842
recent files won't show you ones that you clicked on a week ago. It's only going to show you the ones that you've

29
00:02:56,842 --> 00:03:03,074
been clicking on since you started the project. So next to the recent drop-down

30
00:03:03,074 --> 00:03:09,160
arrow is the boomerang icon. Again, this is for when you would have

31
00:03:09,161 --> 00:03:16,627
a Photoshop subscription. You will see this icon, which is to return to Adobe Photoshop.

32
00:03:16,627 --> 00:03:22,847
Now, this only works if you've recently been working in a Adobe Photoshop. This icon simply makes

33
00:03:22,847 --> 00:03:29,055
quick work of switching back and forth between bridge and Adobe Photoshop.

34
00:03:29,056 --> 00:03:35,115
Next to the boomerang icon is the little camera icon. And you would want to click on

35
00:03:35,116 --> 00:03:43,920
this if you want to open the photo downloader. We'll talk more about this option in the photo module.

36
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:50,017
Next, we have the refined icon. And if you click on that, there's a drop-down

37
00:03:50,018 --> 00:03:56,431
and the first thing you're going to see is review mode. Now before we click on this mode, I'm going

38
00:03:56,431 --> 00:04:02,475
to go to a folder that has some images in it. So this folder has a

39
00:04:02,476 --> 00:04:08,847
bunch of other folders in it, plus a video, and two images. With that

40
00:04:08,848 --> 00:04:16,581
folder active, now I'll go up to the review icon and choose review mode.

41
00:04:16,581 --> 00:04:22,979
When you go into review mode, your entire screen is going to be filled with a carousel of

42
00:04:22,979 --> 00:04:29,137
the folders and files within the current content tab.

43
00:04:29,138 --> 00:04:35,289
You have some options down here at the bottom of the screen. First of all,

44
00:04:35,289 --> 00:04:41,773
if you click on the backward and forward icons, it will cycle

45
00:04:41,773 --> 00:04:48,032
through the carousel. You can also use your left and right

46
00:04:48,033 --> 00:04:54,057
arrow keys. The purpose of the review mode is to go through and collect or

47
00:04:54,058 --> 00:05:00,067
cull images that you want to either place into a collection or

48
00:05:00,067 --> 00:05:06,511
rename or open in Adobe Camera Raw, something like that. So next at the bottom

49
00:05:06,512 --> 00:05:12,820
of the screen, you're going to see an add to collection icon. If you click on this icon,

50
00:05:12,820 --> 00:05:19,028
all of the images that are remaining in the carousel are going to be added to

51
00:05:19,028 --> 00:05:26,083
a collection and you can name it. The next icon is the down arrow,

52
00:05:26,083 --> 00:05:32,208
clicking on that icon will remove items from the carousel. Removing

53
00:05:32,209 --> 00:05:38,239
them from the carousel does not remove them from your computer or from that folder. It

54
00:05:38,239 --> 00:05:44,698
simply removes them from this view. So I'm going to click on that icon with the creative

55
00:05:44,698 --> 00:05:52,187
cloud files folder active and it's going to drop out. I'll also drop out the desktop, document,

56
00:05:52,188 --> 00:05:59,277
downloads, classes. So let me go back to one of these images.

57
00:05:59,277 --> 00:06:06,348
If you click on the Loupe icon at the bottom you're going to get a little magnifying glass showing up on the image.

58
00:06:06,348 --> 00:06:12,764
And you can click and drag it around. You can also click on a particular area that you want to take a close-up

59
00:06:12,765 --> 00:06:18,856
view of. This is perfect for those times when you want to see if somebody's eyes are closed or things like

60
00:06:18,856 --> 00:06:25,114
that. Another thing that you can do inside the carousel is to click

61
00:06:25,114 --> 00:06:32,229
on an image and I'm going to turn off that zoom. And if you press the delete key that

62
00:06:32,229 --> 00:06:38,618
will reject the image, we talked about rejection in an earlier video. If you reject

63
00:06:38,619 --> 00:06:45,000
an image, it simply hides it from a folder rather than deleting it. So rejecting

64
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:51,262
an image is basically you saying, well, I don't really want to throw it to the trash, but I don't really want to see it because

65
00:06:51,263 --> 00:06:57,455
it's not really an image that I'm going to use. I'm going to go ahead and keep this image rejected for

66
00:06:57,455 --> 00:07:03,958
now because again I want to show you that when you leave review mode, whatever

67
00:07:03,959 --> 00:07:09,977
images and files that you have in the carousel that are remaining are going to

68
00:07:09,977 --> 00:07:15,979
be active once you press escape to leave the carousel and here you

69
00:07:15,980 --> 00:07:22,046
can see that the items that we're still in the carousel are active and the ones that I

70
00:07:22,047 --> 00:07:28,127
dropped out are not active. Now that rejected image is still going to

71
00:07:28,127 --> 00:07:34,400
be active because I left it in the carousel and like I said at this point with these selected images

72
00:07:34,401 --> 00:07:40,598
you can do a variety of things. So that's basically how review mode works

73
00:07:40,598 --> 00:07:46,634
to deactivate all of these images and folders, Simply click

74
00:07:46,634 --> 00:07:54,343
on a blank space in the content panel and they'll become deselected.

75
00:07:54,344 --> 00:08:00,698
Next if a file is active in the content panel you can click on the refine icon and choose

76
00:08:00,698 --> 00:08:06,977
file info. This is going to open the metadata dialog box which

77
00:08:06,977 --> 00:08:13,040
as I mentioned earlier in this class we will talk more about this dialog box in a later

78
00:08:13,041 --> 00:08:19,305
video. So I'll go ahead and click cancel. Also in that

79
00:08:19,305 --> 00:08:25,507
refine icon if you have several images activated you can go

80
00:08:25,507 --> 00:08:31,798
into the refine icon click on it and choose Batch Rename. Batch Rename

81
00:08:31,799 --> 00:08:37,864
is something that we're going to cover extensively in the organization modules such as

82
00:08:37,865 --> 00:08:44,154
the photos, the kits and the extras. So for now I'm just going to go ahead and click cancel.

83
00:08:44,154 --> 00:08:50,154
The next icon in the application bar is the camera raw icon. This

84
00:08:50,154 --> 00:08:56,436
icon is only available if you have an Adobe subscription plan. So to use this icon

85
00:08:56,437 --> 00:09:02,723
first you would need to activate one or more raw images in the

86
00:09:02,724 --> 00:09:08,867
content panel and then when you click on the camera raw icon that

87
00:09:08,867 --> 00:09:15,674
image or images will open in camera raw. And you can edit

88
00:09:15,674 --> 00:09:22,661
them and then click done or open to open the image or images in Photoshop.

89
00:09:22,662 --> 00:09:29,032
We will not be covering camera raw in this class because we have other classes in a classroom by Jennifer

90
00:09:29,032 --> 00:09:35,310
Juris that deal with camera raw. So I'm going to go ahead and click cancel. next up,

91
00:09:35,310 --> 00:09:41,378
If one or more files in the content panel are active you can

92
00:09:41,378 --> 00:09:48,224
click on the rotate icon. The one here on the left will rotate the images

93
00:09:48,225 --> 00:09:54,530
counter clockwise and the one on the right will rotate the

94
00:09:54,530 --> 00:10:00,712
images clockwise. These icons are nice for cameras that do not automatically

95
00:10:00,713 --> 00:10:06,945
rotate your images for you. Next in the bar we see the workspaces. we thoroughly covered

96
00:10:06,945 --> 00:10:13,136
that in an earlier video in this module and then lastly is the

97
00:10:13,137 --> 00:10:17,599
search.
