Use the Crop Tool to quickly crop or trim a picture.


The crop size can be either free-form or limited to a specific aspect ratio. For example, if you want to crop a picture so that when printed it will fit inside a standard 5 x 7 inch frame, you can use the Relative Size feature. Begin by enabling the Relative Size check box in the Option Panel. Then enter the desired relative width and height into the edit boxes. PixelNEO will use these values to compute the relative aspect ratio for crop area.



Next, position the mouse cursor over your picture where you want the top left corner of the crop rectangle to begin. Hold down the left mouse button and drag the cursor to where you would like the opposite corner. (If you have enabled the Relative Size option, the crop rectangle will maintain the same relative width and height as its size changes.) When your rectangle reaches the desired size, release the mouse button. After you release the mouse button, a screen will appear allowing you to move, rotate and resize the crop rectangle. When you are satisfied with the position and size of the rectangle, click OK to crop the picture.


If you make a mistake, you can restore your picture’s previous state by selecting the Undo command from PixelNEO’s Edit menu.
