Shotwell is a non-destructive photo editor. It does not modify your original photographs. That is to say, if you crop a photo or adjust its colors, the photo file on disc remains untouched. Shotwell stores your edits in a database and applies them on the fly as necessary. This means you can undo any alterations you make to a photograph.

+ +

If you want to see what a photo looked like before your modifications, press the Shift key. The original photo will be displayed as long as you hold the key down.

+ +

Note that Shotwell can optionally write metadata (such as tags and titles) to photo files. +For more information, see the section Photo files.
