How to see File-Names in Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer || Seeing Photograph Names in Organizer Image-Well

Recently we saw an interesting discussion on Adobe Forums, where one of the user of Adobe Photoshop Elements is confused about the fact that filenames are shown in Orgaizer at times and disappear soon. After more discussion around the same, it came out as a desired behavior which is governed through some settings and controls in Elements Organizer. Let's go through following steps to understand it in better wayIn your Organizer, if you are seeing only Thumbnails and no information like Date or Filename then probably Details option is off in View Menu. Please go to View Menu and check that Details is checked.There are high chances that you will start seeing date under Image thumbnails and if not then you have too small thumbnails inside Organizer Imagewell. If you are seeing Dates now, then move to next step, other go to the bottom and understand the function of Thumbnail Size Slider in Organizer which plays a major roleNow ensure that 'Show File Names' option is checked. if it's not then you will only see Date information and not file-namesAfter checking both the options for Details and Show File names, you should be able to see appropriate information below each thumbnail in elements Organizer. Even now, you are failing to see any information, please go to Thumbnail Slider on the top and increase Thumbnail Sizes in your Elements Organizer.Please feel free to put comments here with your specific queries around this topic or anything else in Adobe Photoshop Elements.

How to get rid of People Recognition Rectangles in Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer || Hiding Face Recognition Rectangles

Recently we discovered that some of the folks don't want to see people recognition controls all the time. And the first obvious thing is to stop Automatic People Recognition in Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer. This can be easily achieved through Preferences dialog of Organizer. There is an option to uncheck 'Analyze Photos for People Automatically' option in Media-Analysis Preferences, which can be seen in the image shown below. By unchecking this option, we actually say not to work on detecting faces in photographs but after this rectangles for already recognized faces will be shown in Organizer. If you want to get rid of these rectangles as well, just go to Edit Menu and uncheck 'Show People Recognition'. First image shows how to do it.Please feel free to comment back with appropriate feedback about this article or others on this blog.

Not able to find my photographs in Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer !!!

Recently I saw one post on Adobe Forums where one of our elements friend was not able to find his files which were imported two months back. Since there can be multiple reasons of files missing in a catalog, so it was not an easy task to guess what all could have caused this. Here I would want to share few basic things that give information about files in a catalog, how they are shown in different views, count, hiding some particular files etc.

Here is some information which may be helpful for troubleshooting problems of not finding files...

Recently I saw one post on Adobe Forums where one of our elements friend was not able to find his files which were imported two months back.

Here I would want to share few basic things that give information about files in a catalog, how they are shown in different views, count, hiding some particular files etc.Here is some information which may be helpful for troubleshooting problems of not finding files...Status bar highlighted by red rectangle is are where number of files in a catalog are shown and also it gives some information about number of files being shown out of total number of files in a particular Catalog !!!In Import Batch and Thumbnail views, all the files are shown unless anything is changed through View Menu. We shall discuss more about View Menu with screen-shots below..This image shows folder-view and in folder we only see files from a particular folder which is selected on left side.At times we mark files as hidden inside Organizer and there is no relation between the status of file on Windows... So in case there are hidden files in Organizer, they can be seen by checking option - 'Show All Files'...There is another option where we can filter a particular type of file format. Eg. - There may be a need to see only videos in Catalog, just go to View Menu and uncheck all except Video. IN case you want to see, check all of them !!!I will try to add other variable things in Organizer which can impact visibility of files inside a particular Catalog !!
