f-spot can't resize photos in edit mode

[Evan Jeffrey]

Binary package hint: f-spot

F-spot should be able to resize photos as an 'edit' operation, not merely when exporting to a gallery or web application. There is a plugin to enable this, but it is not installed or enabled by default.

The use case is that I want to scale a few images down before emailing them. It is not at all obvious when looking at the edit menu that resize should be anywhere else. Once you do find that you can resize when doing export, it is less useful than an edit option since you cannot preview the resized image to see if it looses too much detail.
