Subclips are smaller parts of the bigger project. Use the Make Subclip command early and save yourself some time when you get to the timeline.
Creating Place Scale Markers
You know those scale markers they have on maps that say that 1″ equals 1 mile? Well, Photoshop can create something called Scale Markers. These are measurement guides that are created based on the measurement scale you use. Once a measurement scale is established, go under the Analysis menu and choose Place Scale Marker. In this example, I have established my measurement scale to interpret 100 pixels as 1″ in a file that’s 10″ wide at 100 dpi. So if I want to create a 3″ scale marker, then I would enter 3 in the Length field. I can also choose to display text as a label for the marker. You can choose its color and placement depending on the file.

Hmm, it looks like a lot of people will be posting training on how to use the new program. It would be interesting to see how many people jump on this idea.

Yesterday I watched the videos at the Lightroom Learning Center and I think they are awesome.
Scott and Matt have done an amazing job here and I highly recommend it to everyone interested in or using Lightroom 2.
