If the aspect is locked it will remain constant with the drag.

So not only do you have reason to not complain, you may gloat a little if that is your style.

All of the appropriate packages can be found on UFRaws download page.

The tool has quite a few controls for adjusting the image even before opening the converted file in GIMP and it can, indeed, be used as a stand alone program if desired.

In this post I will explain just the basics of opening a photo with some simple changes.

The tool has a LOT of controls beyond the basics, best left for another post.

If you are starting directly with UFRaw, upon clicking the icon the first screen you will notice is a file selection window.

You can use the standard Ctrl and Shift keys to select multiple images.

The image of boats I have selected is on the right with the size and current viewing scale below.

Next is a row of tabs for making adjustments during conversion.

Below that is a panel that changes depending on which tab youve selected.

But if you want to output to AdobeRGB(1998), you will need to load it first.

This is a one time action and will make AdobeRGB available from this point forward, so its worthwhile to get it out of the way.

From here, click on the open folder next to sRGB to select the ICC profile you just saved.

After selecting the AdobeRGB1998.icc file and clicking Open, you will see AdobeRGB1998 as an option going forward.

There is a lot of experimenting you can do with this tool so please, take some time to fiddle with the other features.

To reset to the default, click the first button on the right.

The normal allotment of options are given, including manual, auto, daylight, shade, cloudy, tungsten, flourescent, and flash.

Also, you may select the white balance from a spot on the image itself.

Most handy is the ratio selector located in the middle of the screen.

The difference between lock and unlock is hard to see when clicking on the padlock image.

To adjust a crop, move to the edge of the image until you see the adjustment arrows, then drag the sides in.
