Бележка:

The functionality and interface of this feature have been enhanced. The corresponding article for the latest version of Elements Organizer is available at this link.

You can identify faces of people featuring in your photos and then organize photos containing them. The identified faces then populate as people stacks based on this labeling. People view allows you to organize your photos based on the people you identify in each photo.

By switching to People view, you can see stacks of all labeled people. Double click on a person's stack to view all images having that person labeled in them.

The tag panel must be activated to view the people tags. Click Tags/Info in the action bar to activate Tags panel.

 

Marking faces in photos

You can identify the faces that appear in photos and create people stacks. This helps organize and identify photos based on the people that appear in those photos. For example, if your friend Jim appears in some of your photos, you can mark Jim and then sort/view the photos featuring Jim.

People stack refers to a stack which has all the photos of the person identified and added to the people list in Elements Organizer.

  1. Switch to the Media view. Click Add People to initiate adding people.

    You can either select a particular photo or set of photos and identify people in the photos. To select multiple photos, press Ctrl(Win) or Cmd(Mac) and select the photos. Notice that the selected photos appear highlighted with a blue border.

  2. Identify faces in the People Recognition dialog box. Click on a face and enter the name of the person.

    Elements Organizer recognizes faces imported in the media and provides selection choices.

    You can also download your friend list from facebook. This helps you tag people that appear in your photos and are present in your friend list.

    A confirmation message is displayed confirming that the faces have been labeled. You can go to People view to view the stacks of the people labelled in the photos.

Mark missing faces in photos

There could be people in photos whose faces you were not able to identify in the initial workflows. For example, a friend named Cathy was added to your facebook friend's list after you took photos at a friend's birthday party. Also, there can be some faces appearing in photos that were taken from a distance or turned away faces.

You can identify such missing faces by marking them.

  • In the Media view, select the photo in which a missing face has to be marked. The Mark Face button is present only when viewing images in full zoom Single Image View.
  • Double-click on the photo to open it in an expanded view and click Mark Face button in the task pane.

The photo opens in a wider view. If the Who Is This? selection box is not placed over the person you want to label, select the box and drag it over the face of that person.

Enter the name of the person and click the confirm icon.

Automatic face recognition is supported only in photos. For videos and audios we need to label people manually using the Add a Person button. Double-click on a photo or video and click Add a Person and enter the name of the person.
