chris32168 Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 Hi, I am on Win Photo 2.5.5 and I desperately try to crop images which I placed with the File/Place function. If I click on Crop Tool C in the tool box, I can only crop the whole canvas. How do I crop the image? I have seen so many tutorials now, they all use the Crop Tool to crop placed images. I am wondering also, they call it Vector Crop tool, whereas it is called Crop tool in the tool box. Am I using the wrong tool? Where to finde the right one? Cheers, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photo does not have that tool. You might consider using a Rectangle Shape as a Mask for your Placed file, as demonstrated in this Affinity Tutorial: Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.
