I think that left clicking on the image should bring up the little
resizing black boxes around the image and a left click on those should
resize the image. Right clicking on the image should also bring the
little black resizing boxes up but should bring up the context menu.
Basically, I mean the same way that MS Word handles it. Also, right
now when I right click on a big image that fills up the whole screen,
the context menu pops up but the paper scrolls way down so the image
is basically off of the viewable screen. Also, right now when I right
click the image only the lefy and middle black boxes come up but I
cannot resize anything until I play around with clicking the image
randomly. Then all of the black boxes show up and then I can resize
the image. I like the aspect ration by the way and the context menu
looks great...love the option to save the image as another format!
Good work!
