    In the earlier version of CR, I would frequently specify pixel dimensions, border thickness, horizontal and vertical padding - even used keyboard maestro to automate common placements.

    In NOVA, I see that I can resize the frame dimension by dragging, and specify wrapping - but have not found a control for spacing. So, a group of 3 photos at the beginning of a section can't be evenly spaced. If the page is presented in a narrow format, like a home page, the images are in vertical contact. If the page is wide, a space that I insert will show. Any way to have that dialogue box of image properties available? Thank you.

    PS would also like to be able to crop images; thought I'd seen that feature in a demonstration, but have not seen a method to do ... so far.

    I saw that in the Image Library you can Edit a photo, which will include Crop and Resize.

    The other comments you made, I agree with.

    * Thank you! I should have added the rest of my findings - for more clarity. The edit option is only available for photos that you place in your own folder area. When we have meetings and events, though, a folder is created for that meeting/event and those are the ones that I'm pulling for to do stories for our bulletins. Photos in those folders cannot be edited [as far as I can find].

    So would really like to be able to have more control on the resizing item and, without spacing being able to be invoked, having several photos together does not look appealing. I often use that trick, because the story word/photo flow needs to be able to handle our narrower web col. format as well as look good in full page. I'd be fine with the wrapping choices for wider story blocks ...

    Hi Andrew,

    Thank you for providing feedback about the updated editor and the image editing options. This is something we're reviewing with the team and seeing what improvements we can make. I am unsure if we'll be able to return the original options to edit images via pixel settings, or adjust the h/vspace.

    Could you give me a link to a few of your stories and how they were setup in the past so I can review and see what options we would have to help you complete those changes?

    Thanks!
