After cropping a picture in Shotwell, and rotating it, the original photograph has not been altered and is still the same. However when I go to the Shotwell "Library" they are shown as being cropped/rotated.
Why are they not being saved properly?

Shotwell is a non-destructive photo editor, see http://yorba.org/shotwell/help/edit-nondestructive.html. If you want to share the altered photo then you will have to export it.

2There's no Export option and Save As isn't saving my changes on a particular image although it does save changes on other images. This is with Shotwell 0.22 on Ubuntu 16.04. Probably a bug?– deviusNov 7, 2016 at 18:56
Shotwell will not modify your original photographs. if you do some change in photographs like crop , rotate etc. and you want to save that then you have do Export it :
File ▸ Export ▸ Choose File Format ▸ Choose Save Location
or press :
Ctrl ShiftE : For export image
some other useful shortcut
Shift Delete : Remove from Library
Ctrl I : Import from folder
Ctrl O : Crop Image
Ctrl d : Adjust
Ctrl Y :Red-eye
Ctrl A : Straighten
Ctrl E : Enhance
Ctrl + : Zoom In
Ctrl - : Zoom out
Ctrl Shift M : Show in File Manager
