Color



Brightness
Adjusting brightness changes the overall lightness or darkness of the image. When you increase brightness, the entire image becomes brighter, while reducing brightness makes it darker.

Contrast
Adjusting contrast changes the difference between the lightest and darkest areas of the image. When you increase contrast, the brighter areas of the image become brighter and the darker areas become darker, making the image look more dynamic and vivid. Conversely, reducing contrast makes the bright areas less bright and the dark areas less dark, resulting in a flatter and less detailed image.

Hue
Adjusting hue changes the overall color balance of an image. The hue is a specific attribute of color that indicates its position on the color spectrum, such as red, blue, or green. When you adjust the hue, you shift the colors in the image toward a different part of the color spectrum.

Saturation
Adjusting saturation changes the intensity or vibrancy of colors in an image. When you increase saturation, the colors become more intense and vibrant, while reducing saturation makes the colors more muted and less intense.

Transparency
Adjusting transparency changes the degree to which an image or element is visible or allows other elements to show through it. When you decrease transparency, the image becomes more see-through.


Layout



Rotate
Allows you to rotate the angle of your image source between -180 and +180 degrees


Cropping



Cropping allows you to manually adjust the visible portion of your image source. You can crop from the top, bottom, left, and right using this option.


Additional Tools



Situated next to the Gear icon are shortcuts to some image tools:

Flip
Use this to flip your image vertically or horizontally

Crop
This tool shows a grid over the image source so you can crop on the fly.
