Nope -  MC is for Image/Audio/Video MANAGEMENT not editing.

You'll need an image editor for that. There are several good ones around and it's worth spending some time looking at the various options of what else they could offer you as well as basic red eye removal

yo yo,

I have Photoshop Elements but I'm not sure how to edit and then import to MC.  

I guess you just edit and then import?

Sounds reasonable . . .

thx

If the file has been imported, you can use "send to" to send it to an external tool (editor) and then save in the editor.  If you have saved it back to the same name, MC knows about it.

I have Send to/external tools configured to open a library file in Photoshop Elements.  My parameters are program path C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\PhotoshopElements.exe (or wherever you have it installed) and parameter "[FILENAME]" (no quotes). It works fine for me. As Jim says, if you are editing an image in PE and dont change the filename then you dont have to reimport. Obviously if you are creating/saving to another filename then you do. Just choose Tools/Import Media in MC, and set the search box to your image folder.
