You can import an unlimited number of photos by file or by whole folders, and
whether photos are embedded or linked to your site in advance of photo
placement on the page.
For large photo collections, searching throughout albums for photos by file
name and EXIF, IPTC or XMP metadata is possible; even edit XMP metadata
from within WebPlus.
The currently loaded album shown on your Media Bar will remain
visible irrespective of which site you have open.
Thumbnails can be dragged from the Media Bar directly onto an existing picture
on your page, replacing it in the process. Alternatively, a picture can be added as
new, being placed at its original size.
To view the Media Bar:
• Unless already displayed, click the handle at the bottom of
your workspace.
To add photos to a temporary album:
1. With the Media Bar visible and a temporary album loaded, click on
the Media Bar's workspace to reveal an Import Picture dialog.
2. From the dialog, navigate to a folder, then select photo(s) for import.
Photos are linked by default.
3. Click Open. Your photos appear as thumbnails in the Media Bar
workspace.
Unless you save it, the temporary album and its photo contents will
not be saved when you close WebPlus.
You can drag one or more files from any Windows folder
directly into the Media Bar window. If you right-click an image
in the Media Bar and choose Locate in Explorer you'll open
the photo's folder via Windows Explorer—great for drag and
drop or just general file management!
