Crop: Automatically Clear the Existing Rectangle

Post by PianoAl »

In an earlier version of PSP, when I selected to crop an image, any previous crops were cleared. That is, I could just click and drag on the image to choose a crop rectangle.

With the current version, PSP always displays a crop box based on the last cropping that I did. I rarely want to use that, and so I need to do some extra clicking to clear it.

Is there any way to make it use the old procedure?

Thanks,

Al

In X4 it's under menu File/preferences/general program preferences/transparency and shading. Uncheck "automatically display crop rectangle."
