Using the Pro Tool Palette
Some commonly used tools are available between the Image Editing Area and the Control Panel in the Pro Tool Palette. The Pro Tool Palette can be toggled on or off in the Preferences menu.

HOLD CROP
Holds the Crop when a new product or image is selected. This is only possible when the image and product have the same aspect ratio as the ones currently in use. If the aspect ratios differ, a best approximation is used.

HOLD OPTIONS
Holds the options on a product after pressing ADD TO ORDER. When this is unlocked, options on the working product will be removed after adding the item to the order.

HOLD QUANTITY
Holds the quantity on a product after pressing ADD TO ORDER. When this is unlocked, the quantity on the working product will be revert to one after adding the item to the order.

HOLD IMAGES
Keeps images in the layout between product changes.

HOLD IMAGE
Holds the image in a node by ignoring drags and drops. This is useful to lock a photographer logo into a node while adding many images to an order. This tool is only enabled on products with more than one node.

CROP OR FIT
Changes the behavior or the node to crop the image or fit it entirely. Fit will scale the image so that the image bounds are entirely within the product bounds; this frequently introduces white space into the product, but it is useful for proof sheets. Hold the ALT key (Windows) or OPTION key (Mac) to set crop or fit mode on all nodes in a product.

ROTATE IMAGE
Attempts to match aspect ratios on an image by applying a rotation when a vertical image is dragged and dropped into a horizontal node and vice versa. If a node is square, the rounding error in calculating the larger axis may cause an image to be rotated or not.

RECTICLE
Displays a recticle in every image node on the product.
