It’s labeled “revert current editing,” and it gets rid of all the applied effects all at once. There is an undo button available for these effects, although it’s hidden in the Instant Effects menu. (To see expanded views of screenshots, please click on the images.)ĭozens of effects are listed in “Instant Effects,” including effects for black and white, artistic effects, film styles, landscapes, portrait (skin tones and effects), retro, traditional, and “user-defined.”Īs soon as you apply an effect, the program asks if you want to save a copy of the unmodified original photos, which you should definitely do so you have a backup in case you don’t like your changes. On the right of the screen are windows for Info about the selected photo (such as which camera it was taken with, location information, etc.) and “Instant Effects,” pictured in one of the screenshots at right. In the single-screen Manage mode, the selected picture appears in the middle while others in the directory appear filmstrip-style along the bottom. A very cool dual monitor mode, accessible from the View menu, lets you keep t he Manage tab open all the time on one screen, while using Adjust or Edit on the other. A “Browse More Folders” option lets you choose different directories to look through. Three main tabs along the top of the screen let you choose between Manage, Adjust, and Edit, with the program opening on the Manage tab showing what’s in the “My Photos” folder.

But most users will probably consider this complaint to be minor, and there are plenty of onscreen tips and instructions available offline even without the full guide.

This is similar to the way the Corel VideoStudio Pro program works, and it’s one of the only drawbacks, especially if you install the program onto a computer that does not always have Internet access. Then, a pop up window tells you that you must register for the Corel Community to read the onscreen Corel Guide.
Instead, it very politely asks which file types to associate with the application, the suggestion being “none,” which I accepted.

I was delighted to find that the software does not first try to organize your entire photo libr ary. When you first launch PaintShop Pro X5 Ultimate a splash screen appears indicating that this is act ually version 15 of the program. This barely met the system requirements, but the program installed and ran almost without a hiccup.
I installed PaintShop Pro X5 Ultimate on a relatively humble Acer Aspire One mini-notebook running Windows 7 with an AMD-50 processor (dual core, 1-GHz) and 2 GB of RAM.
