Crop and straighten a photo
Trim the edges off a picture and set a sloping horizon level.
Cropping trims the edges off a picture. Straightening turns it a few degrees, so a sloping horizon sits level.
Both are reversible. The full original is kept underneath, and Revert brings it back.
Key points
- Cropping trims the edges; straightening turns a sloping picture level
- Revert undoes any edit, however long ago you made it
What to remember
- Editing never throws the first version away.
- A crop is a view of the picture, not a cut.
Try this
