Switch the cropping off to re-enable the other functions again. Cropping is also not stored along with the object profile, it is a corrections that is applied only when selected.

The night mode switch will transform the application colors to a darker and red layout that may be better to reduce eyestrain when worker in the dark. It will also help to prevent blinding the eyes during nightly observations of the sky.

This is very helpful to get a better brightness and also prevent overexposed parts of the image that will cause blown out details. Sometimes the histogram window may not be needed, simple hide it by turning off the histogram switch.
