Automatically change out original image for cropped image in Composer

Within Composer, users are able to access Photo Center to edit images (beyond basic caption and photographer information). When a user wishes to create and use a cropped version of an image, they must do the following:

  • Open the image in Photo Center from within Composer

  • Create the cropped version of the image and save it

  • Close the Photo Center modal

  • Remove the original image from the Compose Tab in Composer

  • Add an image

  • Select the cropped version of the image and add it to their story

If a user is creating a cropped version of the image from within Composer, more often than not they wish to use that image in lieu of the original. If possible, it would be helpful to streamline this workflow and to allow users to swap out the original image with the cropped image upon cropping.

    Thank you JoAnn! This is a good idea and we'll consider it for future work around how Photo Center images are integrated in Composer.
