Editing graphics in their original app

What happens after you put an image on your page and then realize you need to…edit the image some how.…For example, I'll zoom in on this image down here in this exercise file and I…can see that this text is white.…I would like it to be blue.…Well, I could switch to Illustrator and then open it there assuming I know…where it's saved on disk.…But since I'm looking at it here in InDesign it's far easier to use a feature…right InDesign called Edit Original.…I can find Edit Original by first selecting the image and then going to the Edit…menu and then choosing Edit Original.…

But honestly there are faster ways to get there.…I could go to Links panel, right there, there is a Pencil icon.…That is also the Edit Original button.…The fastest way to get Edit Original is just an Option double-clicking or Alt…double-clicking on the image.…That's how you need to do.…Option+double-click or Alt+double-click on this image and it suddenly launches…Illustrator and opens that image.…I'll zoom in here, so I can see the artwork little bit better.…
