Image Editing Interface:
Since the second alpha release, Album Shaper has sported a nifty image editing interface. The interface makes it possible to crop and invert your photos, view a slightly larger preview of them, and in the future apply more advanced filters like red-eye reduction and auto-level adjustments. In order to use the image editing interface, select a photo in a given collection and click the Edit button below. The collection contents will be replaced with the editing inface in which a larger view of the photo and its description are shown. In order to apply a filter, click and drag to select a region of the photo, then click the appropriate filter button below. Press Ctrl-A to select the entire image. Some filters may apply themselves to the entire image if no region is selected (e.g., inversion), while others may do nothing or complain (e.g., cropping). A series of filters may be applied to the image until the desired outcome is achieved. At any time the original image may be recalled by clicking the Reset button. Once editing is complete, click the Return button to return to the collection layout. If filters were applied, a dialog will ask you if you wish to proceed with the alterations. Once applied, they may not be undone. Selecting Ok will apply the alterations to the image and return, selecting Cancel will return with the image unaltered. It is also possible to exit the editing interface by selecting a different collection.
