Adding the Images to the Project

When you add a single image or a folder of images, the files remain stored in their original location on your hard drive.

1. To open an image or folder for editing, you have four options:

   • Click the Add Images button at the top of the Project panel.

1. • Choose File > Add Images to Project.

   • Press Cmd+O (macOS) or Ctrl+O (Windows).

   • Drag an image onto the Luminar Neo application icon.

2. A Finder (macOS) or File Explorer (Windows) window will open. Navigate to the images you’d like to edit.

3. Select the image(s) or folder of images you want to work with. To select multiple images, use the modifier keys Shift and Cmd/Ctrl.

4. Click Open. Your selected images will appear in the Filmstrip, with the first selected image displayed in the main window, ready for editing.

5. To switch between images, simply scroll through the Filmstrip.

6. When you’re ready to save your edits for use in other applications, go to File > Export in the main menu.
