<p>
Actually, the real problem is that once you drag an outline in the preview,<br>
you can't adjust it except by the sliders. For instance, in the GIMP crop<br>
tool, you can select a region, and then there are "grab points" on the<br>
selection outline which allow you to adjust the selected region, similar to<br>
resizing a window in most (all?) window managers. The xscanimage preview<br>
doesn't let you do that.<br>
