Affinty Photo Crop Tool problem in absolute size


Recommended Posts

Went through the process of cropping an image and then export to jpg. Two images one at 16.5 inches (4950px) by 10.95 inches (3284px) and a second using the crop tool to a size 14 inches (4200px) by  10 inches (3000px). Both images show the sizing in File Details, but the first has the full image size and the second has a white border top and bottom. The second so called cropped image does not appear to have changed from the first image when displayed side by side but the crop size is shown as different.

Moving crop box by the corners the size does not change in the absolute display box.

I've reproduced this. I'll pass it to the developers. 

I've been struggling some with Absolute Size cropping, too, Chris. So I"m curious which aspect you've passed along.

For example,

To me that seems like that part may be correct (though of course I don't know the developers intent nor how it works on Mac).

It appears that Absolute Size cropping works in the following way, now:

  1. Sets the crop box to some initial value that may or may not match what you put in the size boxes (this seems wrong, and I've commented in another thread about that).
  2. Lets you drag the crop box handles to change the composition of the image you want to crop. The size boxes stay the same, because then
  3. When you press Apply it crops to your composed image, then resamples  and rescales as necessary so the final size is what you had in the size boxes.

Photo 1.7.1.404

In the croptool, I created two absolute sizes: 13.33 x 10 cm = 1574 x 1181 px and
15 x 10 cm = 1772 x 1181 px. However, the second size actually creates a document size of 15 x 11.25 cm! Do the same thing in Beta 404, everything is correct.
What is going wrong here? See the screenshot.

Im Zuschneide-Werkzeug habe ich zwei absolute Größen angelegt: 13,33 x 10 cm = 1574 x 1181 px und
15 x 10 cm = 1772 x 1181 px. Die zweite Größe erzeugt jedoch tatsächlich eine Dokumentgröße von 15 x 11,25 cm! Mache ich das gleiche in Beta 404 ist alles korrekt. Was läuft hier schief?

Also in the version 1.7.2.471 this error still exists. If I want to make a section with 15 x 10 cm, I have to change manually the 11.25 to 10 before. In 1.7.2.464 Beta it is also running properly.

Auch in der Version 1.7.2.471 ist dieser Fehler noch vorhanden. Wenn ich einen Ausschnitt mit 15 x 10 cm machen will, muss ich vorher die 11,25 manuell auf 10 ändern. In 1.7.2.464 Beta läuft es ja auch richtig.
