Quick editing option for toggled images

Unread post by itexnz »

Hi, another suggestion

Editing a regular image is quick and painless, I can right-click and choose to edit either in the built in tool, or SnagIt etc., if that has been configured... but if the image has been set as a toggle image (as I typically do), there is no corresponding option. There should be an ability to edit the toggling options as well as edit the underlying picture. For toggled images I currently have to go into the toggle edit window, manually copy the path to the image and manually add this path to a file>open series of steps in my chosen image editing tool, save and refresh the topic to see the changes.

That's a lot of steps and I have hundreds of images! Pse Help guys :)

Also I'm wondering if there's an option to see the full-sized image in the editor window instead of the reduced toggle size?

Otherwise the only way that I could verify later on if a screen shot is still accurate is to generate the PDF.

Thanks!

No, this isn't available. But if the editing option comes you will be able to see it by quickly opening it in the editor. :)
