If you need to edit photos in your yearbook, there are a few features in the designer that can benefit you.

How to Edit Images:

To edit a photo, you must first click on an image you have placed on the page, or place an image onto the page. You can place an image by just dropping it on the page from your uploaded photos or you can first place a “drop photo here” box from shapes.

You will know your image is selected when the photo has a red box around it.

Add a Drop Shadow

Click the drop shadow button from the Frame drop-down menu in the top toolbar, and a drop shadow will appear around the edges of the photo.

You can edit the drop shadow settings by selecting Frame then Drop Shadow Settings 

Rounded Corners

Select the Frame drop-down menu from the top toolbar, and choose the Add Rounded Corners option to add rounded corners to a frame.

Your photo will now have rounded off corners.

You can adjust the corners by selecting Frame then Rounded Corner Settings. 

Change Shape

You can change the shape of your photo by going to frame, transform, then assign shape.
 

After clicking Assign Shape, in the pop up, you can click on the shape you want to change your photo box to.  Once you select your shape, it will reflect on the page.

For my photo, I changed my shape to a circle.

Border Color

You can add a border color to any image, clip-art, shape, or text box in the EDONext designer. First select the object you would like to add a border to, then click on the icon that looks like a marker in the top toolbar.

Choose any color from the drop down menu. You can also increase the border thickness by changing the number next to the border icon.

Crop/Position

Re-size your photo, and apply color filters to it by using the crop/edit button located on the top of the Quick Menu.

Once you have elected to crop/edit a photo, you will be taken to the edit photo screen, as shown below.

To crop the photo, click on fit and choose Manual in the drop down. 

Now, you can change the Position of the photo within in the frame or crop your Photo. 

For Position, you can slide the zoom scale to zoom in on your photo and then click the photo to move it around in the frame. 

For crop, you can adjust the size of the selected area to crop your photo. 

To save your cropping, click Save Photo 

Rotate/Flip

Under edit photo, you can click the buttons for flip and rotate 

Select Save Photo to apply your changes.
