Background

The Photos tool displays a dual-pane experience that makes photo context easier to see and edit. This split-view layout supports inline editing and separates photo-specific technical data from project context. It is easy to label photos and update context. You can scan information at a glance. In addition, you can view and click the text, edit in place, and stay on the same page.
