This dialog has the following fields:

image\BeforeAfterZoomToFit.gif Zoom to fit

Use this button to fit entire preview images on both the Before and After views.

image\BeforeAfterZoomToNormal.gif Zoom to Normal

Use this button to view images with normal scale on both the Before and After views.

Before View

This view can be dragged when it is not in Zoom to Fit zoom mode. Place the mouse cursor over the view window (the cursor will change to a hand), then click and drag.

After View

This view shows the original image with the dialog changes applied. This enables the user to see a preview of what the image should look like when the changes are applied.

The view can be dragged when it is not in Zoom to Fit zoom mode. Place the mouse cursor over the view window (the cursor will change to a hand), then click and drag.

Value Edit box and Slider:

Use the Value edit box or slider to set the amount of stretching. Positive values stretch the image toward the edges, and negative values stretch the image toward its center.

Type Drop-down list box:

Use this box to set the bending type. There are three types:

image\sqrblit.gif Normal. Stretch the image along the vertical and horizontal planes.

image\sqrblit.gif Horizontal. Stretch the image along the horizontal plane.

image\sqrblit.gif Use Color: Use the color picker button to select the color to fill any exposed areas. Clicking the color picker button will activate a Color Dialog that will be used to set the color.

image\sqrblit.gif Stretch Image: Stretch the image edges to fill the exposed area.

image\sqrblit.gif Don’t Change: Leave the exposed area as is, without changing it.

Rotate Check box:

Check this to rotate the image inside the arc pattern. It is available only if the Value edit box contains a negative value.

image\Icon_Pivot.gif Pivot Section:

This section contains two edit boxes and a display area for setting the pivot point. You can also set the pivot point by right clicking on the Before view. The Pivot point image\Icon_Pivot.gif appears on the point you just clicked.

X Edit box:

Use this to set the pivot's x-axis position in the image. Enter the value directly in the edit box or use the arrows to set the desired value.

Y Edit box:

Use this to set the pivot's y-axis position in the image. Enter the value directly in the edit box or use the arrows to set the desired value.

Cursor Pos (x,y)

Displays the mouse position with respect to the image.

Center Button:

Use the Center button to center the Before and After views with respect to image\Icon_Pivot.gif the pivot point position.
