The tools in the Geometry panel are useful for correcting distortion and straightening lines in an image.
In the Geometry panel, do any of the following:
- Select automatic or any manual guided perspective corrections from the Upright dropdown menu.
- Select the Auto Upright icon to automatically correct a photo's perspective or select the Guided Upright icon to make perspective corrections manually by drawing guides directly on the photo.
In the Geometry panel, use the following sliders to:
- Distortion: Adjust the distortions often caused while capturing the photo
- Projection: Fix stretching near the edges and corners of wide-angle photos, especially in group photos and selfies.
- Vertical: Adjust the vertical perspective, such as straightening or tilting a vertical line.
- Horizontal: Adjust the horizontal lines.
- Rotate: Rotate the photo clockwise or anticlockwise.
- Aspect: Define the aspect ratio of the entire image.
- Scale: Zoom in or out of the image without affecting the aspect ratio.
- X Offset: Move the photo right or left.
- Y Offset: Move the image up or down.
Check the Constrain Crop checkbox to restrict the Crop Overlay to the visible image area.
Once you have corrected the distortion in the photo, you can fill in the empty area using Generative Expand.
