 Tool strip: Click the buttons in the tool strip to select tools to work with. The tool strip

provides access to the Selection tool for selecting images, the Rotate Right and
Rotate Left tools for rotating images, and the Lift and Stamp tools for lifting
keywords and adjustments from images and stamping them on other images.

 Scroll bar: Use this to scroll through all images in a project.
 Thumbnail Resize slider: Drag this slider to increase or decrease the size of thumbnails

displayed in grid view.

Aperture provides fast and efficient ways of selecting images. You can use the arrow
keys to quickly select an image or multiple images to work on. You can also select
images by clicking, dragging a selection rectangle, and using keyboard shortcuts.

You can display images in the Browser in filmstrip view, grid view, and list view.

When you select filmstrip view, the Browser changes to a single row of images that you
can select and navigate through, and selected images appear in the Viewer.

Grid view organizes thumbnails of your images in a grid pattern. Use grid view when
it’s easiest to identify your images by sight and work with thumbnails as you organize,
stack, or assign keywords to images.
