Hi,

a couple of quick questions. I've checked the bugs and FAQ so apologies if already answered.

Cropping: shotwell does the same as f-spot. i.e. It doesn't remember the last setting for cropping constraint. I usually select 'original photo', and have to keep selecting it as it's not remembered from photo to photo. Would it be possible for shotwell to 'remember last used setting'?

Yes - were hoping to fix this for the next Shotwell release (0.12):

Rejection Tag. Is there a shortcut key for tagging a photo as rejected? (This isn't much of an issue as I simply want to mark photos for later deletion, and I can do that using the star system. i.e. "1 star" means "delete later".

The shortcut key is "9".  See http://yorba.org/shotwell/help/rating.html .

PS: Perhaps off-topic, but one of the things I'm missing from f-spot is the 'straighten' feature. It was very simply. I've tried using straighten in the gimp and although it's possible it seems a bit long-winded. I'm fairly sure it's not possible in gthumb. Is there another editing tool I can use in the meantime (I could use f-spot itself I suppose) to straighten images as I believe a straighten facility is in the pipeline for shotwell sometime anyway.

Yes - we've already started work on a straighten tool for Shotwell and are planning to complete it for 0.12:

It actually is possible to straighten images in gThumb starting with version 2.13.2 which appeared a few months ago:

So you could use either gThumb or GIMP to accomplish this until Shotwell gets its own straighten tool. Cheers -
