define on the image as a frame.

be deselected.
• Change the position of the Selection Frame by moving the pointer inside it, as it
changes into an omni-directional arrow [

this state will cause the Selection Frame to move without changing its shape.

Selection Frame with the mouse cursor changes the shape of the Selection Frame.
• Double-clicking the mouse button anywhere in the Preview window selects the
entire image.
