'Select Frame' Option isn't there

Post by rfj1001 » 28 Oct 2012 18:39

I've got a new image where I want to display just part of it.

Whilst 'Link to Face' is there in the Edit Media Item window, the 'Select Frame' option is greyed out.

I've tried deleting the image and links in FH, resaved the image from photoshop and tried again. No luck :(

The Select Frame option has worked all afternoon. Any thoughts on how to get it working

Select Frame is only active when there already is a Frame to select.

You must use Link to Face or Link to Detail to get a cross-hair cursor and define a Frame.

Then Select Frame to reselect the Frame allows it to be repositioned.

Click the Help button and there is a lot more explanation.
