+ You might want to use an external editor to do additional work on a photo. + If installed, GIMP and UFRaw are the default external editors for photo and RAW editing, + respectively. If these programs are not installed, you must select your preferred + editors by choosing EditPreferences and selecting + editors from drop-down menus of installed applications. +

+ +

+ Once your editors have been set, select a photo and choose Photos + Open With External Editor to open the photo with the external editor. + Likewise, if the original photo is a RAW file, select PhotosOpen + With RAW Editor to edit the RAW file directly with the set RAW editor. +

+ +

+ When you complete your edits and save the file, Shotwell will detect the changes and + update the photo. When external edits have been made, press and hold the + Shift key in full-window view to show the original photo rather than the + externally-edited one. +

+ +

+ Reverting to original will erase any external edits. +

+ + +

+ If you externally edit a RAW photo and save the result to another image, such as a + JPEG or PNG, Shotwell cannot automatically determine that the original RAW and the + new image should be paired. +

+ +

+ If you want to work within the resulting image within Shotwell, you'll need to + import it yourself. +
