Crop tool updates | Creative Cloud only
These features were introduced in the Creative Cloud release for Photoshop CS6.
Updates to the Crop tool include numerous bug fixes and enhancements, including:
Front Image and new presets in the Aspect Ratio menu.
Clicking the double-arrow icon changes the crop orientation by swapping the Width and Height values. This icon replaces the Rotate Crop
Box button.
Choosing W x H x Resolution from the Aspect Ratio menu displays a Resolution field in the options bar and auto-fills the Width and
Height values.
Clicking the Clear button clears the values in the Width and Height fields in the option bar. If displayed, the value in the Resolution field is
also cleared.
The keyboard shortcut for Front Image has changed from F to I for both the Crop tool and the Perspective Crop tool.
