Join Chris Orwig for an in-depth discussion in this video Getting familiar with the Lightroom interface, part of Lightroom 5 Essential Training: 1 Importing with the Library Module.
In this movie, I want to provide you with a general…introduction to some of the essential elements of the Lightroom interface.…Now, I'll go through a few of these essential elements, and then…at the end of the movie I'll review what we covered here.…Alright, well for starters one of the things that you'll notice is…that when you open up Lightroom it's pretty easy to look at.…The interface is pretty minimal. It's also pretty simple.…Well let's talk about the interface from the top down.…If we navigate up to the top, will encounter some pull-down menus.…For example, we can click on the…Photo pull-down menu or the Library pull-down menu.…
And in doing that, you can see that we have…a number of different tasks we can perform with these menus.…If you navigate to the photo pull-down menu, for…example, we can choose edit in and then select edit…in Photoshop if we want to open up one of…our images in Lightroom and bring it over to Photoshop.…Alright, well, next, underneath the pull-down menus,…we have this top area where we have all of these different words.…
