• Click the Collapse button beside the Video Scene icon.
• Choose Edit > Video Scene > Collapse Items In Scene Group.
• Select any of the Video Scene Groups, right click, and select Video Scene > Collapse Items In The Scene group.
Tagging, editing, and deleting Video Scene Groups
You can tag individual Video Scene Groups and play the individual Video Scene Groups in Elements Organizer. If you
want to edit Video Scene Groups, right-click and select Edit With Premiere Elements. Premiere Elements launches and
opens the entire master file for editing. If an individual Video Scene is deleted, it is removed from the master file. To
delete a Video Scene, right-click and select Delete From Catalog.
Filenames and versions
About filenames and versions
The files you add to a catalog retain their original names. When you open a photo from the Media Browser and edit it
in the Editor, you can include the saved file in the Elements
Organizer (selected by default), save the file as a version
in a version set with the original file (selected by default), and save a copy.
When you open a file directly from the Editor or create a new file in the Editor and then save it, you can create a version
and save it only after you’ve selected Include In The Organizer.
Keep in mind the following when editing and saving files:
• By default, the first time you choose File > Save for a specific file, the Save As dialog box opens and the suffix
“edited” and a version number are added to the filename. For example, if your original file is called “daisy.jpg,” the
edited version is called “daisy_edited-1.jpg.”
• Each subsequent time you edit a version and choose File > Save, Elements Organizer overwrites the existing edited
version.
• Each subsequent time you edit a version and choose File > Save As, or edit the original and choose File > Save,
Elements Organizer appends a new version number. For example, if you edit “daisy_edited-1.jpeg,” and choose
File > Save As, the name of its edited version is “daisy_edited-2.jpg,” “daisy_edited-3.jpg,” and so on, in order of
creation. If you simply save changes to an edited version (instead of choosing Save As), the changes you made are
saved to that file and a version is not created.
• If you save as a copy, the name of the edited file is appended with the word “copy.” You can also manually give the
edited photo a meaningful name, for instance, by adding the word “rotated” to the filename. When you save a copy,
Elements
Organizer incorporates the changes into the saved copy, while keeping the original file open in the Editor.
• You can save a version and save a copy at the same time. Depending on which option you choose first, the filename
is appended with either “copy” or a new version number.
• If you don’t select Save In Version Set With Original, you can still include the edited file in the Elements Organizer
by choosing Include In The Organizer. When you save a file this way, it does not become part of the version set,
nor does it have the word “edited-#” appended to its filename.
