saving a zoomed in image

[pdh]

Is there any way to save a zoomed in section of an image?

And then later work on that image in the Develop module?

If you mean crop the image to the zoomed in view, no. Zooming is just a view, not a selection, so you would need to crop the image using the crop tool.

If you mean save the zoom level, yes.

There is a View Point feature in the Navigator panel. Zoom to what you want, then use the burger menu to create View Points.

You can save different zoom levels and zoom positions. Once saved, View Points can be accessed from the view menu. You can even apply keyboard shortcuts to swap views.

The zoom view carries over to the Develop Persona.

Hi,

Yes you can! Zoom in > choose > crop tool  > unconstrained > left mouse click draw from the corner left top > Enter > export image. Or what ever you want to do.

Made a video to show you. But this way you loose the resounding part of the image (outside the crop) after save. 

Regards,

David

Wasn't that what I said in my post ?

That's what I was reading !? And I explained how to crop the image to the zoomed in view.

Thanks All Media Lab that worked. Basically, I cropped the zoomed in image to give me just the zoomed in area in the final image. This gives me a closer zoom than cropping, though of course I lose some quality. Thanks.
