Image Editing Tools

Click this button to select from various image sizing (zoom) options. This only alters the size of the image for editing purposes, and does not affect the final size of an edited image.

Rotate the image left or right 90 degrees.

Use the Crop tool to mark out a square or rectangular border around the part of the image you wish to keep, and then press the Enter key to delete the remainder.

Click the Constrain Selection Proportions tool to force the drawing of a square (as opposed to a free-hand rectangle), when using the Crop tool. This tool button is only available with the Crop tool activated.

Click the Revert to Original Image button to undo all edits.

 

 

When you have finished editing the image, click to confirm the changes. You will be returned to the patient's Clinical Window with the new photo in place.
