24 Chapter 2: Exploring the Workspace
Using the Library
The Library, which is available in Edit view, lists media items in a project, and lets you easily view
and reuse the images, backgrounds, audio, and animation in your project.
You can also open items for edit from the Library. For example, you can right-click an image in
the Library, select Edit With from the menu, and browse to your favorite image editing program.
The image opens in the program, and you can edit and save the updated image in the project.
You can float the Library outside the program window, or move it to a different location in the
window. To do so, rest the pointer over the top left corner of the Library pane until a four-point
arrow appears; then drag the Library to an edge of the program window where it can dock, or to
the middle of the program window where it can float. (If you want, you can always drag the
Library back.)
For each item, the Library displays the following columns: Name, Type, Size (in kilobytes), Use
Count, and Date Modified. (Use Count is the number of times the item is used in the project.)
Click the title of any of these columns to sort the list of items within each item category folder.
Note: You can only see the Library location when you’re in Edit view. If you switch to a different view,
you cannot see the Library. When you move back to Edit view, the Library reappears in the same
location.
New items appear in the Library whenever you add an item to the project. An item remains in the
Library and is available for reuse even if you delete the slide in which that item was originally
located.
If you use an item in one slide and then drag it from the Library to another slide, you can alter the
item properties in the subsequent slide without affecting the first instance of the item.
