Step Three:
If you want more search control, then
choose
Search in Bridge
from the search
field's pop-up menu, and it brings up the
Find dialog you see here in Big Bridge.
You choose where it 's going to search
from the Source Look In pop-up menu
up top (by default, it includes your Pic-
tures folder, any favorite locations you've
saved in Big Bridge, and your desktop).
You choose what to search for using the
Criteria pop-up menus, and the best way
to see what you can search for is simply
to click-and-hold on the first pop-up
menu (it's a pretty darn amazing list,
including searching through all the EXIF
data embedded into your photo at the
moment you took the shot).
Step Four:
When you click Find, the results of your
search are displayed in the Content panel
of Big Bridge itself (as seen here) and you
can open any of the images directly into
Photoshop (just double-click on them)
or Camera Raw (if they're RAW images,
they'll automatically open in Camera Raw
first. If not, you can open JPEG or TIFF
images in Camera Raw by clicking on
them, then pressing
Command-R [PC:
Ctrl-R]
. Easy to remember—just think
“R” for “RAW”).
TIP: Deleting Photos in Mini Bridge
You can delete photos in Mini Bridge by
going into Full Screen Preview mode and
pressing Delete (Mac or PC). You'll get
a dialog asking if you want to reject the
file or delete it. If you press
Command-
Delete (PC: Ctrl-Delete)
, it automatically
puts it in the Trash (PC: Recycle Bin) and
moves on to the next image.
