Knowing it’ll be used often, you’ll find it easily accessible in the top left of the timeline section. Thankfully, the developers have thought of that and came up with a cool new Auto Framing option. Having to manually fix this could be a pain, especially if you’re using a lot of media.

This is at best a distraction, and at worst can lead to a tiny thumbnail-like media in a sea of black. The Organise feature - which helps to categorise by name, face, place, date and other options - now also includes geotagging via Google Maps (though you'll need an internet connection to be able to make the most of the mode).As you add clips of different formats, you’ll see that Elements will shrink them so you can see all of them within the specific frame, which will inevitably lead to black bars top and bottom, or left and right. Not bad for less than £100.Įlements 11 even goes as far as pulling the Refine Edge mode from Photoshop CS5 into the latest software - ideal for selecting complex outlines such as hair. When in the Expert mode it's possible to see and adjust the masks that these edits create, which brings a level of control that's just shy of what's available with Photoshop. Tilt/Shift, High/Low Key, (enhanced) Vignette, and many other modes have also been added.

But there's no share to Twitter or iPad (at least in the version we saw) which seems a little strange.

Guided Edits help make the process of adjustment easier, while a variety of 'share to' options that includes Vimeo, Facebook, mobile devices any many more front the features list. That aspect and a stronger focus on online social sharing are the main themes of the latest version, though the core pillars - Organise, Edit, Create and Share - remain the same.
