Title: Cropping in Studio edition
Post by: mogur2 on July 05, 2009, 04:58:13 PM
I click on the scissors to crop, but do not see any guides for cropping.  What else do I need to do.

Qimage automatically crops the middle of the photo.  You can change that using the cropping tool in the full page editor: click the full page editor button under the preview page.

If you wish to crop the image, I use the batch screen, and the mouse to (hold down the mouse button) to draw a box for cropping.
That will apply a crop box which you can drag, or move to suit.
You will also see the CROP WIZARD button in there to help you too.
Mike's method is print cropping, and this is image cropping. Neither one does anything to your image. They are both filters.

Hmmm!
I don't think I showed Mike how to crop using the batch screen. I guess I will have to hold a seminar near his area.  :D ;D

Oh Lordy.  After all this time, Fred still doesn't know the difference between an image crop and a print crop.   ;D  The OP talked about using the crop icon (scissors) which is referring to a print crop.  You adjust that in the full page editor.  Fred: are you sure you aren't just padding your post count so you can graduate from newbie to Jr. Member?  Only 2 posts to go now.   :D
