szczemp Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 In 1.6 absolute size in crop tool was absolute size. Now absolute size only keeps aspect ratio. How to crop to desired size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How to crop to desired size? Use Unconstrained mode. It seems that "absolute" now means that that after cropping the picture gets resized to specified size.

It acts like a resize canvas and resample all in one. Not too sure if I can find a use for it, have to put on my lateral thinking hat again.

walt.farrell Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Many Photoshop users were complaining that Photo did not have a way of cropping an arbitrary piece of an image and ending up with a specified output size. That's how the Absolute Size option for Cropping works now in Photo, so I assume it's deliberate, not a bug. Edit: I think there is at least one bug in the way that the initial crop box is sized when using Absolute Size, and I have posted about that elsewhere. But I think the actual crop/resize/resample function is probably working as Serif intends.
