Browser overview
After a shoot, you may need to sort through hundreds or even thousands of photos in a project.
Aperture provides efficient methods for increasing your productivity when working with large
numbers of photos.
When you select a project, a folder, or an album in the Library inspector, thumbnails of its photos
appear in the Browser. You select photos in the Browser to work with them. You can move and
rearrange photos, rotate photos, make new versions, and delete photos from a project.

Aperture provides fast and efficient ways of selecting photos in the Browser. You can use the
arrow keys to quickly select a photo or multiple photos to work on. You can also select photos
by clicking, dragging a selection rectangle, and using keyboard shortcuts. If using Aperture with
a trackpad, you can use the swipe gesture to select photos. For more information about using
gestures with Aperture, see
