Image rotation and colour editing
Hello all, I've just started experimenting with Immich as a solution for a shared 'archive' of family photos which my mum has been dutifully scanning from our childhood and her life with my dad prior to his death. I'm really impressed with the polish and the attention to detail, as well as the performance of this app, even just being run on my Synology 923+ (granted, I have lots of RAM which helps!).
Some of the scans require rotational correction (as is to be expected with several thousand photos being processed); or need image rotation adjustment, cropping, etc. Just wondering if this type of function is what is meant in the roadmap by 'basic image editing' or are there already some of these functions in the app. There also doesn't seem to be any way to make image colour corrections to account for old prints and so on. I can't seem to find anything that looks useful for this in the current UI but when you're learning something new you can always miss things.
If it's the case that these adjustments will need to be made in alternate software, does anyone have any suggestions for making the process as easy as possible - a workflow where an image can be edited externally without needing to be re-uploaded or replaced in Immich is something I'm imagining, but of course these things are a work in progress.
Just want to underline again how much I love the app so far and how much I appreciate the work done. It's beyond my talents to do this kind of work so I'll probably not be able to contribute much to the project except money and fan-spruiking!

Information
In order to be able to effectively help you, we need you to provide clear information to show what the problem is. The exact details needed vary per case, but here is a list of things to consider:
- Your docker-compose.yml and .env files.
- Logs from all the containers and their status (see above).
- All the troubleshooting steps you've tried so far.
- Any recent changes you've made to Immich or your system.
- Details about your system (both software/OS and hardware).
- Details about your storage (filesystems, type of disks, output of commands like fdisk -l and df -h).
- The version of the Immich server, mobile app, and other relevant pieces.
- Any other information that you think might be relevant.
Please paste files and logs with proper code formatting, and especially avoid blurry screenshots.
Without the right information we can't work out what the problem is. Help us help you ;)
If this ticket can be closed you can use the /close command, and re-open it later if needed.Rotating and cropping is possible in the mobile app. It does save the edited image as a new image though.
