    I am trying to access this tool. http://ellislab.com/expressionengine/user-guide/cp/content/files/image_editor.html

    If you see attached, there is no option for me to access “Content > Files > File Manager > Image Editor”. The Image editor does not show in the pulldown. Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Hyun,

    The image editor is called on a per image basis so if you pop into your File Manger you will see all your images listed. Beside each image under the Actions column the little picture icon will bring up the image editor for that image.

    Does that help?

    Thanks for your reply John. The only icons that display are “Download” icon and “Edit File” icon. There is no “Picture” icon present. Any ideas?

    Hi, Hyun Lee. What file type are you attempting to edit? Is it an image or something else?

    Hyun Lee,

    What version and build of EE are you using?
    Is it a fresh install or an upgrade from a previous version?

    Thanks for your replies. I deleted the images and reuploaded and seems to work fine now. So bazaar. Thanks as always!
