Step-by-Step Guide
Start by customizing the toolbar of Capture One Pro. You will quickly find that it allows you to show only the essential tools you really need. To customize the toolbar, right-click on an empty area of the toolbar. Here you can click on the “Customize” option to open a dialog box listing all available tools.
You can now either drag these tools into the toolbar or drag existing icons back into the dialog box to remove them. An example could be the icon for annotations in an image that you do not use. Just drag it into the dialog box to remove it from the toolbar.
If you want to make further adjustments, you can also add new icons. Select a desired tool and drag it to the desired location in the toolbar. For example, if you frequently need the guideline to better assess the image, you can easily add it there. Don't forget to save your layout by clicking on “Done.”
Now take a look at the tool column on the left side. This includes various categories of tools. Again, it makes sense to remove categories you never use. Right-click on an empty area in the tool column and choose the option “Remove Tool Tab.” For example, if you do not use the “Stacks” category, you can remove it here.
Additionally, you can add more categories that are relevant to your workflow. Creating a tab like “Black and White” can help you find the corresponding filters quickly. To do this, right-click again and select “Add Tab” to arrange the new tools centrally.
Now you have the freedom to arrange the various filters according to your needs. If this provides an enhancement for your work, you can implement this by adding or reorganizing the individual filters. When customizing, make sure you not only arrange the tabs, but also keep the palette for special adjustments floating for quick access.
To save your personalized settings, go to “Window” and select “Save Workspace.” Rename the workspace to something meaningful, such as “Test,” and click “Save.” With this, you have secured your current workspace and can access it at any time.
If you wish to restore the default settings at any point, simply go to “Window” and then “Workspace” and reset everything to “Default.” This way, you can undo all adjustments and see the view after a fresh installation.
If you have created multiple workspaces, you can easily switch between them. This flexibility allows you to use different layouts depending on your specific workflow. Additionally, you can also delete workspaces that you no longer need by going to “Delete Workspace” and selecting the corresponding workspace.
