How can I enable the rotate buttons without saving the attachments first and make sure that the changed orientation is save with the email?Īttachments are opened in “Read Only” by default and various picture viewers, like Windows Photo Viewer, will then automatically disable any editing commands. When I do that, the next time that I open this email and review the attachments, they are back in their original orientation. However, when I open the picture in Outlook, the Rotate buttons in my picture viewer are greyed out until I first save the picture to another location. I regularly receive picture attachments that are sideways and scans or faxes that are upside down so I need to rotate them before I can view them correctly.
