Enhance Menu

This menu contains the commands you use to adjust the color and lighting of your images. The first six options apply changes automatically, and the remainder let you adjust your changes.

Auto Smart Fix

Choose this option or press Alt+Ctrl+M to have Elements adjust your image's lighting, color, and contrast at the same time (Smart Fix).

Auto Levels

Use this command or press Shift+Ctrl+L to make Elements adjust the individual color channels of your image (Adjusting Lighting and Contrast).

Auto Contrast

Choose this command or press Alt+Shift+Ctrl+L, and Elements adjusts the brightness and darkness of your image without changing the colors (Shadows and Highlights).

Auto Color Correction

Use this option or press Shift+Ctrl+B to have Elements adjust your image's color in much the same way that Levels does. Auto Color Correction looks at different information in your photo to make its decisions, though (Color).

Auto Sharpen

This command applies the same one-click sharpening you get when you use the Auto Sharpen button in Quick Fix (Sharpening).

Auto Red Eye Fix

Use this command or press Ctrl+R to apply the same auto red-eye correction found in the Organizer (Fixing Red Eye).

Adjust Smart Fix

This command is the same as Auto Smart Fix, except you get a slider to adjust the degree of change that Elements makes to your photo. Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+M.
