In-Depth Information
Figure 4-3. Clicking the name of a section in the Adjustments panel collapses or expands that sec-
tion. When you click another section, the previous one closes, so you can see the tools and com-
mands for only one section at a time. In sections like this one that offer multiple editing options,
click the tabs at the top of the section to see what's available. Here, for example, if you click High-
lights, you'll see the previews and thumbnails for adjusting the brightest areas of the photo. Besides
these handy fixes, you can also use most of the Expert mode menu commands if you need something
that's not included in the Adjustments panel.

Elements has a handy feature to help the undecided:
presets
. When you click a section in the
Adjustments panel, a grid of nine tiny thumbnails appears below that section's slider (see
Figure 4-4
). Each thumbnail represents a different preset for that slider.
