Hi Michael,

I couldn't find anything in the UI for product content that would allow
manipulation  (cropping, rotating, resizing) of images.

It's not a well known area for me, hence wanting to check in with the
community.

I imagine the functionality was withdrawn from the UI at some point, but
backend source files were left behind.

Thanks,

Dan.
