can't crop .ARW files
« on: August 12, 2011, 04:22:14 PM »
In the Preview window for a contact sheet of Sony .ARW photos, toggling the Crop icon button does nothing, so I can't crop.  It works fine for me with .NEF and .CR2 photos.  What do I need to do to crop .ARW photos?

I'm running Photo Mechanic 4.6.7 on Windows 7 Home Premium.

You can't crop Sony RAW files.  It was an oversight in our Sony RAW format plugins.  We'll get crops working for Sony RAW files in the next 4.6.8 beta version.
