I just purchased CS4 and I am trying to set up the bridge screen to my specifications. On the left hand side of the Bridge screen there are several tabs near the top of the screen (e.g., favorites, Folders) and also mid way down the left hand side of the screen (e.g., Filter, Collections). On the right hand side of the screen, there are tabs only at the top of the right side (e.g., Preview, Metadata). How can I place tabs mid way down the right hand side? Every time I try to grab a tab and move it down on the right hand side, it just pops back up to the top.

You need to grab the tab and drag it to the bottom of the panel. It’s needs a bit of practice! You will notice when you are dragging that there is a blue box around the moving panel, when you get right to the bottom the box changes to a blue line, that is when you need to let go.

I started to tell him that and then I thought, learning the whole thing would help him more than an isolated tip.

Everyone, even experienced users of previous versions, should take some time to watch those videos.

Thanks Geoff. I’ll give it a try. In general I had figured out how to move tabs around and so I was perplexed as to why I couldn’t move the tabs down. I was dragging them only 3/4’s of the way down (over the half way point). I’ll try dragging them down to the very bottom. I have been using books, videos (that came with the books), and experiemtnation (my favorite tool!) to find my way around. I’ll try the videos you’ve included in this thread. Thanks John.

David, as I said, look out for the blue box changing to a blue line. There is only approx 4mm on the screen where this happens so do it slowly or you will miss it!
