graphics/image-editor-annotated.png

The above illustration shows an image field, with a ribbon of display controls at the bottom. You can use these controls modify how the image is displayed in Content Studio or to examine it more closely in an external editor, but nothing you do with them will affect the stored image in any way. The display controls are:

Open in external editor

Downloads the image to your computer and opens it in an external image editor. By default this will be Paint on a Windows PC or Preview on a Mac, but your computer may be set up to use other image editors by default. You can do whatever you like to the image in the external editor, but any changes you make will have no effect on the original image in the field. If you save any changes, they will be saved locally in a file on your computer. If you want to edit the image in the field, you must use the image edit controls (see Using The Edit Controls).
