Editing the slide photos
The Properties palette displays several simple editing controls
when you click a photo in the preview area of the Slide Show
editor. Although the best approach is to ensure that all editing
and enhancement changes are applied to the photos before
their inclusion in a presentation project, these controls can be
used for making quick simple changes to the images used in
individual slides.
The options include:
Rotate - Pivots the photo 90º left or right.
Scale - Makes the photo bigger or smaller.
Crop to Fit - Enlarges the photo to fill the whole slide frame
even if this action crops the edges of the picture.
Crop to Slide - Fits the photo within the boundaries of the
slide without cropping any image details.

Clicking the photo in the preview area of the Editor switch-
es the contents of the Properties palette to contain simple
editing tools. These include Rotate left and right, Scale
and Crop options, Auto Smart Fix, Convert to black and
white or sepia buttons and Auto Red Eye Fix.
