Hi,
a couple of quick questions. I've checked the bugs and FAQ so
apologies if already answered.
Cropping: shotwell does the same as f-spot. i.e. It doesn't remember
the last setting for cropping constraint. I usually select 'original
photo', and have to keep selecting it as it's not remembered from
photo to photo. Would it be possible for shotwell to 'remember last
used setting'?
Yes - were hoping to fix this for the next Shotwell release (0.12):

Rejection Tag. Is there a shortcut key for tagging a photo as
rejected? (This isn't much of an issue as I simply want to mark photos
for later deletion, and I can do that using the star system. i.e. "1
star" means "delete later".
The shortcut key is "9". See http://yorba.org/shotwell/help/rating.html .

PS: Perhaps off-topic, but one of the things I'm missing from f-spot
is the 'straighten' feature. It was very simply. I've tried using
straighten in the gimp and although it's possible it seems a bit
long-winded. I'm fairly sure it's not possible in gthumb. Is there
another editing tool I can use in the meantime (I could use f-spot
itself I suppose) to straighten images as I believe a straighten
facility is in the pipeline for shotwell sometime anyway.
Yes - we've already started work on a straighten tool for Shotwell and
are planning to complete it for 0.12:

It actually is possible to straighten images in gThumb starting with
version 2.13.2 which appeared a few months ago:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gthumb/2.13/gthumb-2.13.2.news
So you could use either gThumb or GIMP to accomplish this until Shotwell
gets its own straighten tool. Cheers -
