Photoshop :: CS 6 - How To Bring Resolution Box To Crop Tool Bar
May 8, 2012
I am really enjoying Photoshop CS6 and familiarizing myself with some of the new features and changes. Love the new user interface and the speed. But miss some of the control layouts in CS5. For example the CS5 Crop tool with the ability to specify the size of the crop along with setting the resolution.
This was a great productivity tool cropping for a specific Matt window and the final resolution for print. With CS6 we have the size parameters but the resolution box is buried menu item. Is there any way to bring the resolution box back to the crop tool bar?

Whenever I bring up the crop tool I see a dialog box covering part of the image. I never use it. Is there a way to hide or get rid of it?

while looking through certain tutorials on the new crop system i came across many that referenced the above mentioned size and resolution option in the access ratio drop down menu. They all mention a dialog box which then appears which looks really useful, however my version doesn't have this option.

In the old days, one could just use the crop tool and, while drawing crop lines, check the perspective box if you found that you needed to change the perspective. With CS6 if you start with the crop tool, and find you want to change the perspective, you have to change tools to the new perspective crop tool. In the process, you have to tell the newly opened dialog box that you don't want to crop, to get to the perspective tool, which now has reset to its defaults. You've lost your cropping and you have to start over.

I am a labtech at a community college and look after 48 mac pros in which the students use the entire creative suite. (I only mention this becuase any answers need to consider variations in system settings or photoshop settings. college students get into everything!)
Â
But the issue is when you select the crop tool and enter a custom constraint and crop
Â
The image size is sometimes a full 2 inches off of what you set as a crop?! I havn't run into this before
[I do know you can use the drop down box and use {size and resolution} but I want to know why it doesnt work under custom and unconstrained]

when I select the crop tool, my image disappears during the entire crop process. I can only see the image in the preview pane. Why is this happening? I am using the most current version of Lightroom, and I am on a PC.

I am missing a crop tool which can rotate the crop rectangle. Similar to photoshop's tool. I found no way to rotate the crop rectangle in gimp. How do you cut out something from an image if it needs to be rotated while cropping? I tried rotating first then cropping but it does not give me enough precision so I end up with transparent areas at the border.

How do I set the crop tool in Lightroom to crop only one aspect at a time (e.g. - vertical). Right now all crops do a vertical and horizontal at once.

I am having a problem with the crop tool. It will not crop the area I want; it goes to a point and stops. It's as if it has a mind of it's own and I can't direct it. I thought it might be the mouse so I took it apart and cleaned it, and then I put a different mouse in. It still does the same thing.

I want to take my out of camera image, which is at 314ppi at about 9x12 and crop it to 8x10 at 300ppi. But, when I go to the crop tool, and click 8x10 preset, the resolution is set at 72ppi, and i can't see how to change that. So, the preset crop tool gives an outline of the crop area that is very small. The picture itself when it comes up is something like 33 " x 38" at 72ppi. If I go into resize image, it gets time consuming; you'd think I could just select the 8x10 preset at 300ppi and get a file that is about 2400 x 3000 ppi....8x10, 300ppi.

I've been using the crop tool without any knowledge of the little boxes you can fill in to restrict its WxH dimensions. I always wanted my crops to come out at a 2:3 ratio and could never get them perfect since I was just eyeballing it.
So then I found the WxH controls and if I put "2 in" for width and "3 in" for height, my image will come out as desired, no scaling of the image, but with the unfortunate side effect that my DPI has been changed, which causes problems for me later on. Now if I put "2 in" x "3 in" and then specify 72dpi in the "resolution" field, it will actually scale my image which is not what I want either. Now if I put "2 px" by "3 px" of course it will massively scale my image, which again is not what I want.
What I want is to re-crop my image to a 2:3 ratio, WITHOUT scaling, AND without modifying DPI. Is this possible with the crop tool? It seems that my WxH numbers are required to have units after them and I don't want any of those units (inches, px, mm, etc). I want unitless cropping, basically cropping by ratio. Does this make any sense?
I have a work-around which involves batch resetting all my DPI's at the end of the session. But that adds another step to my workflow which is not a very elegant solution.

Ever since I upgraded to Photoshop CS6 and started to use the new crop tool, I get this quite interesting visual error and some artifacting.
Â
I didn't have the problem with the crop tool in the previous versions of Photoshop.

The crop tool does not seem to work in conjunction with a slight rotation. I do not have this issue on my personal computer, only at my place of work, where honestly it's much more important that this function work. The machine I'm on is running XP32 SP3 with 4gb ram, intel proc. Dell machine. Nothing non-standard. I'm using PS CS3 and I believe it's the creative suite package. I know I've used this tool on other machines and at home without issue.       What causes this issue? A two step workaround is not a solution, because the tool does something unique. This is akin to the image size dialogue being broken for me. It's an integral tool and I need it.       The second issue is one that I haven't seen mentioned at all: when using the perspective function of the crop tool, the final image ends up misaligned from the intended crop. For example, if I took an image of a house that was slightly skewed and lined the top and left sides of a crop box with the edges of the house, checked the perspective box, moved the handle in the lower left in to adjust perspective, and then hit enter, the top and left of house will have shifted a large amount away from the top and left of the crop. In effect this gives me a wrong crop. I've never seen this before.       I've tried "ctrl, alt, shift" to reset the prefs and it does indeed reset the prefs, but does not fix the problem. I've tried deleting the prefs files manually in my profile, which does indeed reset the prefs as well,

What I want to do is have the crop tool set at a fixed dimension, WITHOUT resampling let's say I have a picture set to 72ppi, that's 8"x8". And I want the crop tool to be fixed at 150px by 90px, res: 72ppi. What is happening now is, the crop tool is dragging the entire span of the picture, and resampling my selection to the size I specified in the options bar above. I don't want that
What I want to happen is that when I click and drag, only a fixed 150x90px box appears, so that I can't make it any bigger than that...I have done it before....but for some reason I cannot find the option to turn of resampling, or for that matter the options for deleting the cropped out space or hiding it.

I have never had any trouble cropping photos but now I can't seem to make the crop tool work. It has the corner boxes for adjustment but the boxes between the corners that allow me to stretch the selection are gone.

i have photoshop cs2, and everything was fine until last night when mysteriously the sizing options for my text tool got seriously knocked out of whack. any normal-sized font pt just doesn't show up at all (it's so small you can't see anything). 1296 pt (the largest you can go) shows up, but still smaller than any normal 8-72 pt.

I found out a way to handle and bypass the function so it works like in earlier versions.
1. First step is to change to classic mode (this is done in settings above the image a little "gear")
2. The second step is to change ratio to unconstrained.
Â
The third step is the tip!You know when you want to crop a landscape image of a portrait image and want to go from side to side.The problem was that I started to rotate a crop frame that was there by default... REALLY CRAPPY FEATURE!
Â
3. So here is the tip
Place your cursor is outside the picture Before you begin dragging, hold down shift.
Begin the dragging, then let go of shift, and "tada" the crop frame behaves as it should.

When I use the new crop tool in CS6 to reduce a large portrait to a small one for the Web the image is way oversharpened.If I take the same photo and use Image Resize and use Billinear or Bicubic Best for Smooth I get much better results.
Â
Crop to 188px wide. Middle: Image resize with Billinear. Right: Image resize Bicubic Smooth.Never had this issue before with CS5. Is there a general resize method preference? I'm on Windows 7 64bit if it makes any difference.

I have a crop tool preset I made in landscape orientation to size photos all the same for a data-merged book I do every year. With CS6 I noticed a new and annoying behavior; if I move the crop tool too far to the left, it automatically changes the crop area to portrait. If this is supposed to be a feature, it's a most unwelome one. If my crop preset is landscape, then that's what I want. I'd like to know if there is a way to disable this "feature".
