Moving and Resizing Marquees
Once you’ve created a marquee, you can move and resize it if necessary.
■ To move the marquee, place the cursor within its borders.
When the cursor turns to a hand symbol, click and drag
the marquee to a new position. Hold down the Shift key
to limit movement to the horizontal or vertical directions.
■ To resize the marquee, place the cursor on its edge or
corner. When the cursor turns into an arrow symbol, click
and drag to resize the selection area. Hold down the Shift
key to resize the marquee proportionally.
If you’re viewing your image on the Thumbnail preview screen
and it appears sideways or upside down, click the button to
rotate the image upright. Click the button to create a
mirror image.
Applying Image Adjustments
After positioning the marquee where you want it, you can make additional image
quality adjustments. The adjustments apply only to the selected area.
See page 25 for more information about applying basic exposure and color
adjustments. You can also restore color, correct backlighting, or apply special
adjustments to enhance your images, as described on page 33.
On the Full-size preview screen, you can check the results of your adjustments more
closely by clicking the Zoom button. Or (on both preview screens) you can use
the Densitometer to inspect the image on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Click the
Densitometer button, then hold your mouse pointer over the image to view
color components on the Densitometer screen. For details, click the
Help button.
