If you want to modify your image--resize it, smooth it, modify the colors, change the transparency color, make it look like an oil painting, or whatever--you need to use an external tool. The helper application image editing functionality allows you to use an external editor to modify your image as desired, and then places that image right into your HTML file.
To perform out-of-place editing on an image:
The helper applications available through the Cosmo Create Object Editors palette are: HTML source editor, enhance, Frames editor, Cosmo Worlds, inline attributes dialog, Sound Editor, Button Magic, Showcase, xv, Movie Maker, and Image Works.
You can also add your own helper applications to those already available on the Object Editors palette. For detailed information on Cosmo Create helper applications, see the Object Editors Reference card, the application's man pages, and any additional documentation associated with the application (a hard-copy book, the application's online help, and so on).
Note: If you are using a helper application to edit a template file from /usr/share/CosmoCreate/templates, you must save the file in your current directory first. You cannot edit files in /usr/share/CosmoCreate/templates.
