return to original image

Post by cayennep »

How can I do this? I didn't think I saved, but want to go to original and don't see how to do that - tried opening the props file in capture and it will not open

I've usually deleted these, but in this case it's there and not useful - capture often uses it in a way that's not helpful, and now I can't get the original

any help appreciated, thx

I don't have access to Capture at the minute, but...

As you've rightly guessed the props file contains the original capture plus the elements (callouts etc) you've added.

If you open your saved image (ie the final version) you should be able to delete elements and 'remove' cropping by dragging the crop markers back to their original location.

If you're not able to do that, are your final image and the props file in the same folder?

>>> wasn't that kinda thing, neither callouts nor cropping, and wasn't able to delete
