How to edit an image: Look, Adjust and Hide

Half my screenshots have a customer email in the corner. I was cropping them in another app just to avoid leaking someone's address into a tweet. Click Edit on any image and you get three groups of controls: Look for frames and backgrounds, Adjust for size and position, Hide for blurring or pixelating sensitive parts.

Good to know

Opening Edit on existing media uses neutral defaults, no frame and a transparent background, so your image is not changed just by looking at it. The preview keeps its position and size when you open Edit. If something jumps, that is a bug worth reporting. Multi-image composition (fan, grid, stack, overlap) lives in the same panel.

Does blurring actually remove the data?

Yes. The blur is baked into the exported pixels, not an overlay that can be peeled off.

Why does my preview look different when I close Edit?

Inside the editor you see the source ratio so you can work precisely. Closed, you see the per-platform framing that will actually be published.
