I won&#8217;t keep you with a long, drawn-out, convoluted, complicated tutorial for the last one of 2022. This <strong>Quick Trick<\/strong> is literally 4-clicks-and-done&#8230; a true <strong>WSNH<\/strong> trick. (*<strong>W<\/strong>ork <strong>S<\/strong>mart <strong>N<\/strong>ot <strong>H<\/strong>ard) Let&#8217;s proceed.<\/p>\n<p>I know I&#8217;m not the only one who often has about a million objects open in my <strong>Elements Photo Bin<\/strong> while I&#8217;m working on a layout. The thought of putting away my toys then takes on quite an unhappy aspect, and I might want to start into a new project right away, so I don&#8217;t want to just shut down <strong>Elements<\/strong> then restart it&#8230; bleaah! But then I found this <strong>Trick<\/strong> and it&#8217;s been a life-saver!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-47513\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-2-500x269.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-2-500x269.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-2-768x414.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-2-1536x828.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-2-875x472.jpg 875w, https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-2.jpg 1924w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This 4-click process is so easy! <strong>File&gt;Close All&#8230;<\/strong> (Keyboard shortcut <strong>CTRL\/CMD&gt;ALT\/OPT&gt;W<\/strong>) opens a little submenu where it asks you what you want to do with the files. I always <strong>Save As<\/strong> the files I&#8217;ve changed that I want to save my efforts for later first, just as a good habit. For example, photos I&#8217;ve edited and layouts I&#8217;ve completed are <strong>Saved<\/strong> as I go along, but that button I <strong>Resized<\/strong> or that ribbon I recoloured? They don&#8217;t need to be <strong>Saved<\/strong> as changed. With this menu, I can use one click to tell <strong>Elements<\/strong> to do the same thing with everything in the <strong>Photo Bin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-47514\" src=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-2-500x269.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-2-500x269.jpg 500w, https:\/\/gingerscraps.net\/gsblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-2.jpg 724w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And voil\u00e0!
