@walt.farrell I want to crop 2:1 starting at Y= 120 px. While the marquee transform tool allows this, crop does not have this functionality built in. I hopped on the unofficial discord and someone helped my figure out a work around, by making a square with the transform tool and the popping the layer I want to crop into the square. Go figure, an odd way to do it, but if it works it works! Speaking with people there they tell me that in general Affinity does have decent support for its products, so that is a relief. I'm glad they have that 14 day policy, I'll try it for a week before deciding to refund. I'd love to stick with Photo since I am actively using Design (which is amazing), figure it would help the workflow having everything from the same suite. Just hope not to run into too many scenarios like this one /: - Unrelated venting My latest pet peve is I can't copy paste into paint, which means I can't then copy paste into web whatsapp to share someting without saving a file. But I know that is just me being silly and not being able to copy paste into paint is probably something most people don't do at all. Changing workflows is always stressful I guess.

It's been a few years since this thread was opened. I'm coming from using a free generic software alternative, and decided to give Photo a run, since it has a very good price and I will be using Affinity Designer. I'd like to add my two cents. I've made a selection with the marquee. I've used the transform to get exactly the part of the image I want by numbers. I want my image to be 2w x 1h. I can't crop it from the selection. Ok, fine. I'll try giving your crop tool a try. I've selected the size I want to crop 2x1, but now I can't use the transform tool. I do this dozens of times a day for blog articles. For now I guess I'm going back to my old software. I'm going to try to refund my purchase, just purchased it less than an hour ago, and am really disappointed this has been an ongoing issue for two years, plenty of users requesting the feature, and no support behind it.
