In Elements 5.0 keywords are added to your photos in the form of Tags. <strong>The</strong> Tags pane stores the<br />

Tags, provides an easy drag and drop approach to adding tags to selected photos and sits to the<br />

right of the main thumbnail area in the Photo Browser workspace. <strong>The</strong> pane is grouped together<br />

with the Collections and Properties panes in the Organize Bin.<br />

Tags are applied to a picture by selecting and dragging them from the pane onto the thumbnail<br />

or alternatively the thumbnail can be dragged directly onto the Tags pane. Multiple Tags can<br />

be attached to a single picture by multi-selecting the Tags fi rst and then dragging them to the<br />

appropriate thumbnail.<br />

image in the browser (Organizer) workspace.<br />

2. To add a single Tag to multiple thumbnails, multi-select the thumbnails in the images<br />

and then drag the Tag from the Tags pane onto one of the selected thumbnails.<br />

Creating new Tags<br />

displayed after pressing the New button at the top left of the pane. Next, fi ll out the details of the<br />

new entry in the Create Tag dialog, select a suitable icon for the Tag label and click OK. <strong>The</strong> fi rst<br />

quickest way to add an image to the Tag icon.<br />
