What options are available on the iPad to edit photos?
I can access my dropbox on the ipad app, select an image, (I assume cloud image), select "Edit". There are only two options, "crop and rotate". Then when I do a "save changes" 1. There is no option to do an "undo" and 2. Does it save an edited copy and keep the original?
Because, when I download the image to the IPad there are a lot more edit options, including the "Undo" option.
Is this the way it is meant to work?
This would be correct for the Dropbox mobile app, only crop and rotate are available. Saving the file will overwrite the original and there is no undo option.
When you download the file, you're editing the file in another app entirely, which is why you get more options.

Hi bazzaiphone, thanks for messaging the Community!
In order to understand what screen you're seeing, could you attach a screenshot showing this information?
This will help me to assist further!
Hi Jay, this is the screen I get when I try and edit a photo which is in the cloud and not on my Ipad, using the Dropbox edit feature. There only seems to be a couple of options, Rotate and Crop, is that right?
