GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 334063
Add cropping functionality to screenshot tool
Last modified: 2006-08-25 12:12:39 UTC
It'd be really great for people that want less than one window, for showing a web page, or perhaps a UI glitch for a bug report or something. Quite a hassle to fire up gimp every time you need to crop a screenshot. Would be great if there was f-spot-like scropping functionality in the screenshooter.
I would recommend looking at the cropping dialog of gthumb, it's really nice.

Isn't this really a duplicate of bug 155061? Aren't shooting a part of the screen and cropping the shot just different ways of accomplishing the same thing? Also, IMHO it would be better to implement bug 155393 than to add image editing capabilities like this to gnome-screenshot.
My opinion about comment 3, is that I prefer cropping because you do it on the final image so you can do it with more detail than selecting on the screen, anyway I think both overlap so, maybe the first that gets implemented win? And I think that just add an "Edit" menu that launches gimp is not a solution, the normal user just wants to crop the image and don't want to learn gimp for that...
