Fixed aspect ratio for crop tool
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
It would be useful to set the aspect ratio of the cropped area. (e.g. most digital camera takes 3:4 ratio picture, and the standard photo formats are usually differents, for example 2:3)
There's a straightforward workaround for this - make a selection with a fixed aspect ratio (check "Fixed size/ratio" in the selection tool options), and then in the crop tool crop from selection. Since this workaround is *so* straightforward, I suggest closing thos as WONTFIX. However, if other people think this enhancement would be worth it, it could be considered for 1.3. Cheers, Dave.
I knew this sounded familiar... see comments on bug 61094 on this topic already. I still think it's not worth adding. Dave. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 61094 ***
