KeymasterEarlier in the app’s development it worked that way, but other beta testers were unhappy with that behavior. That’s because the image moves, and it made people have to hunt around the image. I will note your request, but I can’t promise anything.
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterThanks for the suggestion. I’ll keep it in mind.
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterIt’s worth considering. Thanks for the suggestion.
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterYes, I can see that, but it would complicate the UI. Right now, there is a single button: on / off. Adding a different choice requires a menu or something like, and crop is already complicated.
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterYes, it’s on the list for the future already.
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterI’ll put it on the list for the future.

KeymasterWhen you enter the crop tool, there is a button that looks like # to the left of the cancel / ok button pair.
That is the grid control.-

KeymasterI agree. It’s something I plan to do at some point.
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterThere is a rule of thirds grid in crop currently. Are you asking for another grid option?

KeymasterSmart Albums in Nitro are visible in Photos, but not in the Photos Smart Album area. In Photos, they appear in the Nitro folder. That’s because Apple does not allow apps to make Photos smart albums. I’m sure that was confusing. I’ll try again: Smart Albums in Nitro are regular Photos albums (like ratings albums), but they are treated specially in Nitro. Smart Albums made in Nitro appear in Photos with a weird series of letters and numbers. That’s expected (and has to do with the silliness I have to go through to make a “smart album” that’s not a true smart album.
You can’t remove an image from a Nitro smart album. You can only delete images from smart albums. This is also true for Photos Smart Albums (try it). That’s because a smart album must provide the correct search results.

KeymasterNothing I can really do about it right now (other than not call the app Nitro).

KeymasterSome apps may be able to read/write keywords in the library, but they are probably sold outside the App Store. Inside the App Store, apps are prohibited from accessing keywords (as keyword access is a private function in Photos).
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterThat feature exists in the app. Go to Settings and look for Configure Editing Options. There is a button there. You can rearrange adjustments and also choose “Auto Collapse” to get the behavior you described.
Nik Bhatt
KeymasterI hope to add keywords to the Finder part of the app in the future. I need to figure out a few things first.
I cannot support keywords in Photos, even though Mac Photos lets you add them. That’s because Apple does not allow apps on the Mac App Store (yes, that’s right) to read or write keywords.
In general, I try to avoid implementing features on only one “half” of the app because it’s very confusing to people (especially when keywords are available inside the Photos app).
As far as Perspective goes, I suggest trying the vertical and horizontal sliders – that is an easy way to correct perspective.

KeymasterThe screenshot did not come through, so I cannot comment on it. Edge Aware has to walk a fine line to detect edges while not getting tripped up by slight variations in color and texture that are always present in natural images.
