View mode is the main viewing component of the user interface.

Zoom in or out on your images.
View images in a slideshow.
Play video and audio files, and add audio to your image files.
Add captions to your images.
Catalog files by tagging them, adding categories, keywords and other metadata.
Apply editing and special effect presets to your images.
Viewing RAW Images
A RAW image is like a photo negative. When your camera takes the photo, it captures all the raw data that makes up the image and it
includes an embedded JPEG so that you can preview the image. The same as with a negative, it is necessary to develop your RAW file
to view the photo.
When you double-click the thumbnail of a RAW image in Manage mode, ACDSee Pro checks to see if you have previously developed
the RAW file. If you have, ACDSee Pro displays the developed photo in View mode. If you have not, ACDSee Pro does one of the
following:
If you have selected the Speed: Use embedded JPEG check box on the General tab of the Options dialog box, ACDSee Pro
displays the embedded JPEG, created by your camera when you took the photo. This is the default setting.
If you have selected the Quality: Perform high quality decode check box on the General tab, ACDSee Pro quickly
develops the RAW file and displays a temporary photo of the RAW file.
When you zoom in on your undeveloped RAW image in View mode, if you have selected the Speed: Use embedded JPEG option,
and if you zoom past the resolution of the embedded JPEG, ACDSee Pro quickly develops the RAW image so that you can see the
image at that zoom level. When View mode changes the display from the embedded JPEG to the decoded RAW image, you might see
a change in the color, light, or detail of the image. This is due to a difference between the settings applied by your camera to the
JPEG and the settings used by ACDSee Pro to develop the image. Since different camera models apply different color, light, and
detail settings to embedded JPEGs, these settings do not always match the settings used by ACDSee. However, you can then use the
ACDSee Pro Develop tools to process the RAW image to use your preferred settings.
