Recognizing People Automatically
Also new from version 8 is the option to have Elements check for faces in your Organizer
catalog while you are working on other tasks. You can start the process by selecting the
Recognize People Automatically setting in the Auto-Analyzer Options section of Edit >
Preferences. Instead of displaying the people photos the program finds in its own window, a
'Who is this?' text box is displayed on the thumbnail of the photo in the full Organizer space.

Organizer-based face recognition workflow:
1 Start by selecting the Recognize People Auto-
matically option in the Edit > Preferences >
Auto-Analyzer Options dialog.
2 Now when there is a period of inactivity in Ele-
ments, the People Recognition technology will
search through your catalog and display 'Who
is this?' text boxes on photos where it locates
people.
3 Click on the text box and add the name of the
person highlighted in the white rectangle.
