I’m adding an image (portrait) to a photo banner/background. Though the image is upright when I view it in finder (and in the thumbnail in Resources), it displays 90CCW in wysiwyg. However when I browser test the page, it’s corrected…

Glitch @dan ?

other than scale adjustments, the settings in transform are at the default.

Thoughts?

Did you take the picture with an iPhone? Can you just open the picture with preview once and save it again. Then try again in Rapidweaver..

I had the same problem. Opening the image in preview, rotating it around to the correct orientation, then saving it and adding again to resources works!
