this dialog box is organized in tab that are available depending on the type of the object to edit.
This tab is available for both images and video. It is divided into two parts:
- To the left: The interactive area
- To the right: The settings area
At the bottom of the interactive zone, is an area for changing the image or video file:

This button allows you to change the file
Warning! If you replace a file (image or video) with another one with a different image geometry, you will need to review the image framing in all shots.
At the bottom of the dialog box:

This button enables or disables the magnetic rulers: When rulers are enabled, the mouse will automatically snap to the edges of the photo, facilitating the framing.
The interactive area
You can use the interactive zone to set the framing with the mouse or the keyboard:
With the mouse |
Click one of the handles and, with the mouse button down, drag the mouse to modify the size (to increase or reduce the part of the image to be kept).
Click the image and, with the mouse button down, drag the mouse to modify the part of the image which will be kept. |
With the keyboard |
Use the arrows to move the part of the image which will be kept.
Use SHIFT+arrows to move the upper left corner handle or CTRL+arraows to move the lower right corner handle, to change the size of the part of the image which will be kept. |
The settings area - Framing and form
 |
Allows to select a framing from a list of predefined framings. The framings are classified in different categories:
 |
Lock on the project geometry |
Lock the image framing selection rectangle to the same geometry as the project. If you place the image in full screen, the reframed part will correspond to the whole screen. |
 |
Lock on the image geometry |
Lock the image framing selection rectangle to the same geometry as the image |
 |
No constraint |
No constraint is applied to the image framing selection rectangle. |
 |
Lock on this geometry |
Lock image framing selection rectangle to the actual geometry. This only has meaning when a shape has been defined in "no constraint" mode. |
According to the image format, various choices will be proposed to you. For example:
|
Shape |
Select a shape for the current block. |
 |
The horizontal position from the left (X). This position is expressed as a percentage (%) of the width of the image. Example: if X=25% then the 1st quarter to the left of the image is eliminated. |
 |
The vertical position from the top of the image ( Y ). This position is expressed as a percentage (%) of the height of the image. Example: if Y=25% the 1st quarter at the top of the image is eliminated. |
 |
The width. This value is expressed as a percentage (%) of the original width of the image. Example: if Width=33%, the re-framed image will represent 1/3 of the original. |
 |
The height. This value is expressed as a percentage (%) of the original height of the image. Example: if Height=33%, the re-framed image will represent 1/3 of the original. |
Remarks:
- You can use the + and - buttons in each input field to change the settings, or directly enter values for the four parameters.
- When the image does not correspond to the geometry of the video to be produced, transparent zones appear. For example: an 4:3 image used in a 16:9 project will be shown by default with a transparent zone on each side.
The settings area - Annimation settings
Speed wave |
Defined speed curve for image animations. |
The settings area - Image rotation
 |
The rotation angle for the z axis. This position is expressed in degrees. Example: if Rotation=90°, the image is turned by a quarter to the right. |
 |
Turn the image to the left (to the nearest multiple of 90°). |
 |
Turn the image to the right (to the nearest multiple of 90°). |
The settings area - Luminosity, contrast and gamma and Color enhancement
 |
Allows you to increase or decrease the luminosity of the image |
 |
Allows you to increase or decrease the contrast of the image |
 |
Allows you to to increase or decrease the gamma value of the image |
 |
Allows you to activate the grayscale (black & white) filter. |
 |
Allows you to activate the equalize (Histogram equalization) filter. |
 |
Allows you to modify the colorization of an image by changing the primary color red. Example : Reducing the red component makes the image more yellow - increasing it makes make the image more red |
 |
Allows you to modify the colorization of an image by changing the primary color green. Example : Reducing the green component makes the image more red - increasing it makes the image more green |
 |
Allows you to modify the colorization of an image by changing the primary color blue. Example : Reducing the green component makes the image more red - increasing it makes the image more blue |
Remarks:
- All the combinations are possible. For example: you can increase the red and reduce the green at the same time. The results depend on the initial strength of the primary color components of the source image.
This button allows the value to be reset to zero for all correction settings.
The settings area - Image enhancement
Apply a filter to the photo or video images. The following filters are available:
The settings area - Artistic effects
Apply a filter to the photo or video images. The following filters are available:
 |
Allows you to activate the negative filter.. |
 |
Allows you to activate the emboss filter. |
 |
Allows you to activate the edge filter. |
 |
Allows you to activate the charcoal filter. |
 |
Allows you to activate the oilpaint filter. |
The settings area - Image distortion
Apply a filter to the photo or video images. The following filters are available:
 |
Allows you to activate the swirl transformation. Image swirling is a non-linear image deformation that creates a whirlpool effect. |
 |
Allows you to activate the implode transformation |
Remarks:
- A value of 0 disables the filter.
- A negative or positive value active the filter in one direction or the other.
This button allows the value to be reset to zero.
