Ken Cope Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Could we please have the ability to nudge the crop tool with the arrow keys? 1) Open image in APhoto 2) Select Crop tool 3) Create custom ratio eg. 16 x 9 4) try to nudge the selection up or down using the keyboard Nothing happens What I would like to see: The crop selection will nudge the crop selection by 1 pixel increments and when the shift key is held down it nudges by 10 pixel increments BTW the move crop still doesn't become active unless the crop selection is dragged out, using the context toolbar stops the crop from being movable unless the image off from the crop is clicked, I would expect the crop to be moveable as soon as it becomes active from the context tool.

emptyflask Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 This is important to me as well! Please post a status update. Constraining the crop to the actual image area (and/or cropping to a marquee selection) is also a crucial feature. lisa999 and Steps 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 @emptyflask We know the crop functionality is being rewritten but we do not know what it will contain or exactly when it will happen and Serif do not give ETA's for these sort of updates. In the meantime there are some workarounds you can use... To Crop to Canvas 1. Make your selection 2. Invert Selection 3. Delete 4. Clip Canvas Steps 2 to 4 can be made into a macro if you do a lot of this sort of stuff Constraining the crop to the actual image area Not sure I understand exactly what you mean but if you have snapping switched on then the crop boundaries will snap to the edges of your image when adjusted Quote To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is fixed in 1.7 beta. But moving by keyboard is still not possible. On 2/14/2018 at 7:29 PM, emptyflask said: This is important to me as well! Please post a status update.

Yes, setting a checkbox to allow a constraining would be really helpful not to accidently include transparent pixels. Now you only have the snapping. Quote Windows 10 Pro x64 (1903).
