• crop coordinates:
  • two corners (upper left and lower right),
  • upper left corner and width plus height,
  • gravity, width plus height plus offset,

• text position:
  • outside: bottom, left/center/right
  • inside: by gravity or by position and rotate
• customized sepia,

• contrast between -5 and +5,
• customized contrast stretching,
• vignette:
  • can be sharp or blured,
  • corners can be filled by selected color,
  • offset in both direction
• logo position by gravity, size and offset,
• compose:
  • add picture on right side
  • add picture on bottom
  • autoresize picture
  • fill color if no autoresize
• fast file navigation: First, Prev, Next, Last or keys: Home, PgUp, PgDn, End,
