Workspaces
Workspaces are new in CaptureNX 2, enabling you to quickly change tasks while displaying only the
palettes and windows necessary for that task. CaptureNX 2 comes with four different default workspaces
and provides you with the ability to create custom workspaces. Selecting a particular workspace will arrange
all of the palettes and windows according to the stored settings for that workspace including the position,
state of the palette (maximized or mi nimized), as well as other se ttings that affect what is d isplayed within a
palette or window.
The settings for the default workspaces were created based on the tools used in typical tasks. Custom
workspaces however can be created to meet your specific workflow needs.
To change workspaces, navigate to the Window menu, select the Workspa ces menu, and then select the
workspace to which you would like to switch. Alter natively, use the workspace selector found within the
activity toolbar, or use the corresponding shortcut.

Browser

Use the browser workspace to browse and sort through your images. In this workspace, the browser fills the
screen, the Folders palette is open, and all other palettes are closed.
While in this workspace, use the folders palette to find the folder you wish to work on and then use the
tagging and filtering tools to rate and label your images and then filter and sort your images to find only
those images you want to work further on in CaptureNX 2’s editor.
When the browser workspace is used on a single screen, opening an image or group of images from the
browser will automatically toggle the edit workspace.
