Improve Use of Screen Space in Cull Feature

Suggestion: Improve Use of Screen Space in Cull Feature

When using the Cull feature—whether with portrait or landscape images—a significant portion of the screen is left unused, primarily taken up by large black areas. This unused space could be put to much better use by expanding the Face-Focus viewer, which is currently limited to a very small square. Even with zoom functionality, its size limits its usefulness.

I recommend utilizing the otherwise wasted screen real estate to create a much larger Face-Focus viewer. This would provide a clearer, more practical view and enhance the overall usability of the feature.

Please see the attached screenshots for comparison:

  • The first image shows the current layout.

  • The second shows a proposed layout that better uses available space.

Current workaround

Do not use the Cull feature is the work around.

    Also, allow resizing of the thumbnails on the left and bottom, as well as the ability to collapse the left side tools for users on a laptop with limited screen space.

    I would also add.. sometimes I need not only face, but object or point focus to review in closeup panel.

    The images switched positions after submitting the post. It looks like now the second image is the Current layout and the first is the Proposed layout. Read the red text as well for further explanation.
