On previews that an image upload option, customers can easily adjust their pictures within the image placeholder element using a set of control buttons. 
 
These buttons will appear automatically under your preview and with them, you can: 
  • Zoom in or zoom out
  • Rotate
  • Move it in different directions. 
Besides the button, there is also the possibility to let the customer move the image directly from the preview on desktop, or with touch controls on mobile. Learn how to enable these option below.

To enable mobile touch controls

When enabled, uploaded images or vectors can be moved, rotated and resized with touch gestures on mobile devices as well as using the control buttons.
1. Open store.
2. On the top menu go to Settings, and open the tab Preview Behavior
 
4. Scroll down the page until you find the Image Upload Manipulation section 
5. Enable the mobile touch controls options

Resizing the preview to fit the image control buttons

Image control buttons appear only after a customer uploaded a picture. They usually take up a portion of the preview area, so after they appear the preview resizes to make room for the controls. 
 
You can avoid this resizing, by disabling the resize preview to fit image control buttons option.
 
When disabled, the image control buttons will have a fixed location, and the preview won't change size.
When enabled, the preview will automatically downsize when the image control buttons appear.
 
To enable/disable this option
 
When this function is enabled, the preview will automatically downsize when the image control buttons appear, and enlarge when the controls are not there. When disabled, the image control buttons will have a fixed location so the preview won't change size. 
1. Open store.
2. On the top menu go to Settings, and open the tab Preview Behavior
3. Open the Settings section
4. Scroll down the page until you find the Image Upload Manipulation options 
5. Enable the Resize preview to fit image control buttons options
Tip:
We recommend having this enabled if your products don’t have photo upload.
