# ACDSee Discussions

Between creating the first digital asset manager and, more recently, the world’s first digital asset manager and RAW editor with layers, ACDSee has led the innovation of creative software solutions since 1994. Extending beyond the realms of image viewing, digital asset management, relational databases, format conversion, and cataloging, ACDSee has expanded into image editing, online functionality, plug-ins, image manipulation, support for RAW images, layered editing, video, and much more, growing and changing every year since. Lately, for instance, ACDSee has branched into image editing mobile apps on Android and iOS.

## Would like to integrate MS Research image composite editor for stitching as a plug-in
](/discussions/15567-would-like-to-integrate-ms-research-image-composite-editor-for-stitching-as-a-plug-in)
I currently pass multiple images for 11x17 or panorama stitching to a program from Microsoft research. It would be helpful if this could be used directly as a plug-in to ACDSee

## I don't think ACDSee allows a change to the 'canvas size' as is found in Photoshop?
](/discussions/15143-i-don-t-think-acdsee-allows-a-change-to-the-canvas-size-as-is-found-in-photoshop)
Occasionally I need to have some space around an image, i.e. embed an existing image in a larger image that has room for text or other annotation. Thanks to all for the heads-up.

## How can I get rid of "magnifying" when I use ACDSee in View mode? When I click, the photo gets bigge
](/discussions/14592-how-can-i-get-rid-of-magnifying-when-i-use-acdsee-in-view-mode-when-i-click-the-photo-gets-bigge)
Left clicking on any photo in View mode causes the photo to enlarge. Right clicking decreases the size. But I want the photo stable -- as it was in previous ACDSee's.
