PhotoFlash applies the Sharpen setting you specified to the frontmost
window. If the window contains an image that includes a selection,
PhotoFlash sharpens the selection only. If the window contains a catalog with
selected thumbnails, PhotoFlash sharpens the images they represent and
ignores any selections the images may contain.
