- Open Cache Render

- Edit Externally
Using the Edit Externally tool Blender will open an external image editor, as specified in the Preferences and load in the image to be edited.
- Save
Save the image, if the image is already a file Alt-S.
- Save As
Save the (rendered) image in a separate file Shift-Alt-S or you want to save it under a different name.
- Save a Copy
Using Save as Copy will save the file to a specified name, but will keep the old one open in the Image editor.
- Save All Images
Save all modified images. Packed images will be repacked.
