Operation Manual

You use the Browser & Viewer Metadata dialog to customize the display of information
shown with images in the Browser.
For more information about changing the type of metadata that appears in overlays in
the Browser, see Specifying the Type of Metadata to Display in the Viewer and Browser.
To turn the display of metadata on or off in the Browser
Do one of the following:
µ
Choose View > Metadata Display > [Browser] Show Metadata (or press U).
µ
Choose Show Metadata from the Browser section of the Browser & Viewer Metadata
Overlays pop-up menu in the tool strip.
To switch between views of metadata information in the Browser
Do one of the following:
µ
Choose View > Metadata Display > [Browser] Switch to [view name] (or press Shift-U).
µ
Choose Switch to [view name] from the Browser section of the Browser & Viewer Metadata
Overlays pop-up menu in the tool strip.
If you prefer to display the thumbnail images in the Browser without metadata overlays
but would still like a way to quickly view an image’s metadata, you can use metadata
tooltips. The Metadata Tooltips HUD displays the metadata about the image beneath the
pointer. Move the pointer over another image, and the metadata in the Metadata Tooltips
HUD updates to show the information about that image.
