How the heck do you get out of Resize?
This has happened to me several times now. In trying to grab the scroll bar for the adjustments I accidently hit Resize. Once in Resize there seems no way out other than to render an image. Click on Edit, nothing, Cancel does in all your edits, Escape does nothing.
What am I missing?

You're missing 'DONE'. I've already contacted Tech support about this and they say that's the way it is. You HAVE to hit Done otherwise you'll lose your work and if you came directly from Edit, you'll lose that too.
It's good practice to go back to Browse before going to Resize just to make sure your work is saved.
The description on how to use Resize is on page 201 in the user guide and it says the same thing...

Well thanks for that but what ever happened to Cancel? So, it looks like you have to save an additional file just to escape the clutches of Resize?

You can cancel, but if you went to Resize directly from Edit, then Cancel will dump your edits as well.
The whole purpose of Resize is to create a new larger file, so by clicking Done, the program thinks that's what you want and opens the save dialog.

Thanks Rick, on my laptop it is way too easy to hit Resize by accident so when that happens I guess the only choice is let it do its thing and delete the unwanted file. BTW how do you add the 'Solved' banner to this thread?

I think that can only be done by the moderators. You can check by clicking on the gear widget on your first post at the top of the page.

Ya, I wish they had a “back button” to get out of Resize. I have hit it by accident too more than once.

Very much agree. We need to be able to Exit Resize somehow. If I hit resize by accident, it doesn't matter if I lose the Resize edits.

It isn't just the Resize edits, it is ALL edits made since you entered the Editor for that session. The easy solution is to use the Save command every so often to insure all edits to that point are in fact saved. Then if you enter Resize by accident you can Cancel without too much loss of work.
