Initial crop guidelines - custom crop

Post by MarkT »

After I have saved a custom crop as default, the initial cropping guidelines don't look right when transformation is initialiazed:

Any saved cropping rectangle is applied to new images proportionally to the image width and height. So if you crop and image to just the left half and save the settings, when you apply the crop with the same settings to a different image you will also get the left half even though the resulting image size may be different from the result of the original crop.

I do see a problem if you set proportions for the crop box as these proportions are not respected when the next image comes in, and I have fixed that for the next release. I also added an explanation of this in the help file for Crop.
