Detail view: complete information about an image

This guide will show you all the sections of the detail view and how to make the most of them to get maximum value from every image in your library.

What is the detail view?

The detail view is a full screen that shows:

• The image at full or large size
• Technical metadata (dimensions, file size, date, etc.)
