The Photo Tools 277
Zoom 1:1
Select a photo and click the Zoom 1:1 button.
The
ZOOM TO 1:1 adjusts the zoom so that the selected image is shown at full size,
which is where each pixel of the image is mapped to each screen pixel. Use this
option if you want to work on a photo at full size in a document where you have
scaled the photo down.
Scale photo to 100%
The SCALE PHOTO TO 100% operation takes the currently selected photo and
scales it to its full size. It also puts the photo onto the pixel grid.
So for example if the selected photo is scaled down to 500 pixels wide, but the
original imported photo was 1000 pixels wide, the photo on the page will be scaled up
to 1000 pixels wide. When the document zoom is 100%, that means that each pixel
of the image is mapped to each screen pixel.
Enhance Tool
Click the Camera icon to enter the ENHANCE TOOL.
The Photo Tool provides a direct and very fast way of cropping, adjusting the
brightness levels and sharpening photos, even for ultra high-resolution images. This
tool provides:
• One-click auto-enhance your photos; this is particularly good for dull,
underexposed images.
• Manually adjust the brightness, contrast, color saturation, hue and blur or
sharpness of photos.
• Crop images. This is "live crop" so you can un-crop and adjust the crop at any
time.
• Display a brightness levels histogram of your photo.
• Adjust the brightness levels curve for more advanced levels control.
• Correct color casts or white balance.
• A single-click "Compare" function to quickly compare changes against the
original.
• Easy copy / paste all photo enhance edits between different images.
All these operations are interactive with live update. As you adjust the values, the
image is updated instantly. They are also all non-destructive, meaning that your
original image is not altered and you can always adjust or remove any adjustment.
