Image Editing Actions

Mirror, Flip, Rotate, Sharpen, Blur, Smooth, Auto-Contrast

Use the tools in the Actions section of the Edge Imaging ribbon bar to mirror or flip the image orientation, rotate images by 90 degrees, sharpen, blur, or smooth image resolution, and apply auto-contrast. The Actions tools also provide you with a way to reverse or re-apply changes you have made to your images.

How to Get Here

Click to OpenEnable Edit Tool - To use these tools, enable the Edit icon from the Imaging section of the ribbon bar. Then, click in the layout to select the image you want to work with. Editing mode is not available from cardflow layouts. You can, however, maximize individual images in a cardflow layout to edit them. Your Edge Imaging background changes slightly to indicate when you are in Edit mode.

Use This Feature

Click to OpenChoose an Editing Action - Select the image to work with, then enable the tool you want to use in the Actions section of the Edge Imaging ribbon bar.

Save Changes - Click Save in your Quick Access toolbar or File ribbon bar (or press Ctrl+S on your keyboard) to save any changes you have made. If you are in Edit mode, and have enabled the Exit Edit on Save setting in your Imaging User Options, you return to viewing mode after saving the image. Otherwise, you remain in Edit mode, where you can make more changes as needed.

Exit Edit Mode - Click Cancel in the Imaging section of the ribbon bar, if needed, to exit editing mode without saving any additional changes.
