It is not as powerful as many of the deluxe image editing tools such as Adobe Photoshop, but its wide availability in the Krieger computer lab and elsewhere means that it is a good choice for simple image editing tasks, especially for the beginner. if you wish to use it in the Krieger Computer lab, it is, of course, free. However, if you want to use it on a nother computer outside the lab on which it is not currently installed, it is widely available for use under a shareware license. This means that you are free to use it for a 21-day evaluation period without charge, but if you wish to use it past that time, you must pay a registration fee.
Details are available on the startup splash screen.
If you are experienced using it and are interested in more advanced image editing using Adobe Photoshop, visit the Multimedia Development Center in the back of the Krieger lab and ask the staff members there what opportunities for its use are available there. However, if you are using a different machine you are going to need to download and install LView pro. Cropping Images Now that LView pro is installed and you are running it, one of the first things that you may want to do is crop an image to a smaller size, to remove a border or other extraneous part of the image. To do this, refer to the image below. Now, under the image menu, select Crop to delete the parts of the image outside of the selection marquee.
