Edit Images

The HTML Editor includes expanded image editing capabilities for the WYSIWYG editor. Users can edit images in place (including flipping, rotating, and adjusting brightness, sharpness, and color), edit the image description, and edit the size of the image. Users with access to Manage Files can save image edits to the Manage Files area, while users without access to Manage Files can save images as attachments.

This feature is currently unavailable for the Quizzing experience.

Note: Image changes save at the course-level root to Manage Files or, depending on user permissions, as new file attachments to the item (e.g. Discussions) every time a change is made. Multiple edits, in turn, create multiple files. If the course is copied, all image edits are copied as well.
