Photoshop Elements, a more accessible version of Adobe's full professional program, introduced a new feature for its 2021 program, called 'Face Tilt,' which makes it easier than ever for users to make edits to their photos to adjust the direction that their subjects are looking.
The feature can be controlled with three simple sliders, which adjust 'Angle,' 'Left-Right,' and 'Up-Down' directions. As the app will automatically detect faces in an image, users can get to work right away, quickly adjusting the image to create a more cohesive group photo, or make it appear that young children are looking into the camera if they were distracted when the picture was taken.
The updated program is expected to launch in the fall of 2020.
