CMS Request: Controlling the Display Mode of Images Connected to Collections in the Wix Editor

Collecting votes
Currently, in the Wix Editor, editing of images connected to a collection is limited. It is not possible to adjust how the image displays inside its frame. 
For example, if the placeholder image is square (has a ratio of 1:1 width/height), but the images in the collection are rectangular, the image will be cut off at the sides or "forced" into the given space.
Workaround:
In the Studio Editor, it is possible to control this image display from the image settings. Every image has a bounding box that acts like a responsive container. You can set how your image displays inside its bounding box using the Display mode drop-down. This is not available in the Wix Editor.
