Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest. Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options.
On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web. Basically, SiteGrinder turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool.
The Filter panel is open by default, but again, we can switch between them by clicking on their name tabs. Earlier, we saw that we can filter the images displayed in the Content panel according to star ratings and labels, but you ain't seen nothin' yet.
The Filter panel takes it to a whole new level. In fact, the amount of options we're given for narrowing down exactly which images are displayed borders on crazy. We can filter images based on file type, date created, aspect ratio, the ISO speed, aperture and exposure time, the lens and focal length that was used, the type of camera, the serial number of the camera, and more! We can even combine multiple filter options to really narrow things down.
Like I said, crazy! To turn any of the filter options on, simply click on the triangle to the left of a category's name to twirl it open, then click on any of the filter options inside it. For example, here I've twirled open the Orientation category, which tells me that 16 of the images in the current folder are in Landscape mode while the other 16 are in Portrait mode. The Filter panel automatically searches through all of the images in the folder and populates itself with this information.
If I want to view only the Landscape images, I can just click on the Landscape option, which places a checkmark to the left of the option's name, letting me know the filter is now active:. To turn a filter off, simply click on it again.
Or, if you have multiple filters active and need to turn them all off at once, click on the circle with the diagonal line through it the universal symbol for Ghostbusters in the bottom right corner of the Filter panel to clear all filters instantly.
We'll save the discussion on the Collections panel for later, but essentially, Collections allow us to gather up multiple images, whether they're all in the same folder or scattered all over your computer's hard drive, and save them as a collection so we can view them all together as if they were in the same folder. We can even create Smart Collections which let's Bridge automatically add images to a collection for us based on criteria we set, but again, we'll save that for later.
The middle column in Bridge CS4 is home to the Content panel, which displays thumbnail versions of the images inside the folder we've selected. The default size of the thumbnails is very small, too small to make them of much use, but we can easily increase the size of the thumbnails by dragging the slider along the bottom of the Bridge interface.
Drag it towards the right to increase their size, or towards the left to decrease it. You can also click on the rectangle icons on either end of the slider to jump to the next largest size the right rectangle or the next smallest size the left rectangle :.
There's lots of other ways we can customize the display in the Contents panel which we'll look at later. At the top of the right column in Bridge CS4 is the Preview panel, which displays a larger preview of the image that's selected in the Content panel. At least, the idea of the Preview panel is that it should display a larger version of the image. The problem is, by default, the preview image is not much bigger than the thumbnails in the Content panel, and you don't have to increase the size of the thumbnails very much for them to actually appear larger than the preview!
However, what we're seeing here is only the default size and location of the Preview panel. As with most things in Bridge CS4, there's ways to customize it, which we'll see later:. Below the Preview panel in the right column in Bridge CS4 are the Metadata and Keywords panels, both extremely valuable and important when it comes to viewing information about an image and being able to search for and find images later.
The Metadata panel is open by default and displays all the details we need, like the date the photo was taken, the camera settings, file size, file type, color mode and bit depth, whether or not the flash fired, and lots more! Use the scroll bar along the right to scroll through all of the information. We can also use the Metadata panel to add additional details to the image, like the photographer's name and contact information.
We'll take a closer look at the Metadata panel later:. If we click on the Keywords name tab at the top, we switch from the Metadata panel to the Keywords panel which allows us to assign descriptive keywords to our images so we can easily find them later simply by searching for images that contain those keywords. We can even use the keywords to have Bridge automatically add images to Smart Collections. We'll look at Smart Collections and everything we need to know to use the Keywords panel effectively in another tutorial:.
The Bridge CS4 interface gives us three main columns of panels, plus some icons and options above and below them. Use the Back left and Forward right arrows to move through your folder browsing history.
Click the down-pointing arrow to quickly select any parent folders or any of your Favorites. Click the Recent Files or Folders icon to quickly access any recently viewed files or folders.
Click on the Get Photos From Camera icon to download your images to your computer. Select the Output option to output images to a web gallery or to the PDF format. Click on the various workspace names to change the layout of the Bridge interface. The search box is limited to searching within the current folder or any of its sub folders. When in Compact mode, Bridge always appears on your screen in front of any other open programs.
Lower quality thumbnails load faster, but higher quality thumbnails look better. The star icon allows us to filter the images displayed in the Content panel.
The two sorting options allow us to change how the thumbnails are listed, as well. Click on the Open Recent Files icon to select from a list of recently opened files. Select the image or item you want to delete, then click on the Delete Item icon.
The Folders panel allows us to navigate easily through the folders on our computer. If prompted, sign in to your Adobe account, then click either Download or Install for your app.
