thumbnails and corners

[prazim]

I am having 2 issues with thumbnails presently. It may simply be I need to configure something differently.
1. I have thumbnails set to 133px but when viewing frame thumbnails, they are definitely much smaller than 133px and it is difficult to see them. I have the thumbnails there set to "large thumbnails". I am wondering if this can be adjusted or defined somewhere to make them larger.
2. More and more often, I am using the organizer in full window mode as it is more efficient in scrolling through folders to find an image. It would be great if when one moused over an image in the organizer, a pop up window of user-specified size presented a larger thumbnail of the image. (I'll post this also in Wishlist.)

I can't figure out how to make rounded corners. It seems that option should appear in edge affects, but it isn't there. There's probably an easy way to do it, I just can't figure out how.
Thanks,
Sue

I suspect that you've set the thumbnail size somewhere in General Program Preferences. None of those settings effect the the Organizer. Instead, use the "Zoom" slider in the header of the Organizer.

There is no dedicated command to round the corners of an image, and all digital images are in fact rectangular. So a rounded corner image is just faked by making the corners transparent, or white if the image will be printed, or transparent or the same colour as the web page or picture viewer background if you're displaying it on screen.
There are a number of ways to do this, but usually they involve making a selection with rounded corners, inverting the selection, then deleting the selected corners.
