Julieanne Kost shows how to establish and effective workflow in Photoshop by opening files into Adobe Photoshop from Adobe Bridge.
- Although I find that the start screen can be useful…for creating new documents, or for opening recent files,…I prefer to manage all of my different assets…in either Adobe Bridge or Lightroom.…Now while I'm in the splash screen in Photoshop…and I click open, I can navigate to different folders…and I can see the contents in those folders.…But it's really quite limited.…So I'm gonna click cancel, and instead I'll choose file…and then Browse in Bridge.…Adobe Bridge is a separate application that you…can download and install as part of Creative Cloud.…
On the left hand side there's a Folders panel…where you can quickly navigate and look…at the contents of different folders.…I can select images in the content area…and I can even move them between folders.…Although I won't do that right now.…I can create new folders by clicking on the…New Folder icon if I need one.…And, I can see my images larger either by clicking…on the slider down here at the bottom,…or by clicking on the preview tab here…to see a larger preview of the file that I have selected.…
