Cropping with out changing settings everytime?


Recommended Posts

Hi, I am trialling Affinity Photo on a PC and hoping to use it on 3 computers including an iMac.  We currently use PS for all our photo editing.  The tool that we use with almost every photo ( up to 800 a day) is cropping the photo.  The crop needs to be the real image so that when it is then processed in a 3rd party program and then for printing, it remains as cropped.

 

The Affinity Photo Crop doesn't seem to have a px/inch that can be set and it does not remember the last crop size that was used.  In fact, with 10 images opened, after cropping one, it doesn't even remember that you were cropping. 

 

I am sure that I am doing something wrong but I can't see an obvious way of changing it.  Can somebody please help?  Even if everything else is brilliant, this would stop us from being able to use Affinity.

 

Looking forward to your guidance. G

Hi Geofflittle

 

Welcome to the forums

 

There is a option to set the size of the crop and to add this as a preset, select the crop tool, then from the context tool bar at the top select custom ratio from the mode drop down.

 

Once you have set your size click the drop down again and and select add preset, to use select the crop tool then select your custom preset, I have included two links below to a tutorials that may help.
