To compare your current active photo with the original or a saved named version, in the Compare view, select a photo thumbnail from the Flimstrip, edit as required, and then select the Before and after mode.

You can keep adjusting Current while you review the differences in the Original.

• Details: Zoom in, Zoom to fit, or Zoom out to inspect details. In Before and after mode, select Link zoom   to move both photos together, or Unlink zoom   to control them separately.
• Exit: Select Compare again to exit. In Multiple photos mode, select Remove from compare      to take a photo out of the view without deleting it.
