Enhanced Cropping Tool
« on: August 27, 2010, 07:37:46 AM »
In one of the next version i would like to see an enhanced cropping tool.

First i would like to have a grid an it, with the rule of third on it like with the new photoshop CS5

Second i would like to turn the tool so i could make better crops without opening the picture in PS.

What do you think about my two feature requests?

Thx

The second one is definitely coming.  The first one sounds interesting but we have no plans for that feature at this time.

...and to have again the ability to import the photos to Lightroom with the cropping done by PM (as it was available in recent PM versions) :-)

Once we have a rotatable crop, we'll re-enable that feature.

My number one complaint/wish for PM is a rotateable crop tool!  Please dont wait to implement this in some distant release, this needs to be priority one.   Its a basic function that will allow us to remain entirely within PM from ingest to upload. 

Thanks!!!
