Viewing images

You can view images in a tabbed format, in which a tab appears at the top of the image window. When you click a tab, the image in that window becomes the active image. You can also view images in windows, which you can move, resize, or close. You can open the same image in multiple tabs or image windows, which lets you see the image at different magnification levels.

The Tabbed Documents mode (left) lets you maximize your image viewing space. To view several images at the same time (right), turn Tabbed Documents mode off.

If you have multiple images open, you can arrange the image windows to view them side by side or stacked in cascading order. You can also see a list of all open images.

If the image is larger than the image window, you can pan to view different parts of the image, or you can fit the window to the image. You can also see a thumbnail of the entire image in the Overview palette. For more information, see Using palettes.

The title bar at the top of the image window shows the filename and the magnification percentage. An asterisk after the filename indicates that the image has been modified and that those changes have not been saved.

If the image has an embedded watermark, a copyright symbol is displayed in front of its name. For more information, see Using digital watermarks.
