While the current cropping behavior in eDesign is designed to reduce accidentally moved frames, some users may still need the ability to alter the frame size after an image has been placed.
Effective today, eDesign will support using the Control/Command key to enable a new cropping mode. Hold the Control/Command key and double-click inside the image frame to enable the ability to move and alter the size of the frame with the photo in place. It is not necessary to hold the key once cropping mode has been entered.

* Lock/Unlock Position: Lock the location of a particular frame on a template from the Control Panel.

o New “Show My Pages” filter function.
