    Default How do you get rid of those Smart handles around images?

    How can you get rid of these 'smart handles' around images?

    With these handles you can only resize an image to the bottom right, snapping doesn't seem to work when you are resizing, skewing an image is made difficult. I just want to go back to images being treated like a basic shape filled with a bitmap.

    Just toggle between the Photo tool & the Selector tool does the trick.

    Just clicking on it again with the selector tool doesn't change anything for me, but clicking on the "Show selection bounds handles" button did the trick. Newly imported images now also don't have those handles.
    Thanks man, those smart handles were driving me crazy.

    Edit: When the "Show selection bounds" handles button isn't selected in the Selector tool you ALWAYS have those smart handles around images, even in the selector tool.

    Sorry Know1, I edited my post as the first posting was incorrect as you state. My edited post now reads:
