Edit after screen capture

Is there an option you can check to have a screenshot stay open in edit mode similar to an option that you can check in Samsung phones display settings or default setting for the LG G2?
Grest feature I'm looking to figure out where to activate if possible...
Thanks

Reset Gallery app as default after camera update

Hi,
I installed the new camera app update but didn't like it so uninstalled the updates on the Play store to get the old camera app back. Thing is, now when I take a picture and click the little preview on the top right corner to see it, it takes me to the Photos app instead of the Gallery app. This wasn't the case before I updated.
Is there any way I can set Gallery back as the default and stop previewing my pictures in Photos?
Thanks.
I'm stock, unrooted btw.
I've never used this but If you go to Settings > Apps then the menu you get "Reset app preferences" select that ( option to cancel or reset) and it says the reset includes "Default applications for actions"
Thanks for your help. Unfortunately that didn't work

Goto settings/ apps/ photos/ clear defaults and that should work

I'm afraid that doesn't work either. Thanks for your help though.
Can you see Photos in settings > apps? I thought it was a component of Google+ and clearing the defaults for that may do it.
Disable Photos and Gallery is the only option.

I've disabled Google+ so as to disable Photos but that still hasn't worked

Font size on home screen

Is there an easy solution to increase font size of apps and folders on the home screen. Having problems to read them. They are so small.

Oh i see..not sure if it will make a difference but maybe you can change the layout off home screen to 4x5 and see if it's better. Not sure if there is any other way around it

I use Nova Launcher Pro. It has the feature to adjust the font size for the apps label

Just shrink the dpi settings from the 411 stock. Go to developer options, if you don't have it enable it by going to settings, about this phone and tapping the build number a few times.
Then developer options in the bottom of settings. In drawing options you'll find the number. Change lower to increase all sizes. Don't go too low. 380 maybe. Try it out

Problem with Google Photo App

Any here use it? It create bright light when viewing.

If you uninstall all the updates and disable the auto-update for the app, the problem goes away. We'll have to wait for Google to fix it. Apparently some Xperia users are having the same issue.
Not facing any issue as u said above.. just a small bug which lags playing slow mo

Same here.
It is a conflict between the default "Splendid" color gamut mode and the Google Photos app, if you disable it under Settings -> Display -> Splendid -> Color Mode:Standard (instead of Wide Color Gamut) the photos should stop doing that bright/wash out change. Annoying but a simple fix until Google updates the Photo app.

Go to Settings > Accessibility.

Newest update fixed the problem. No need to change anything.
