movable crop window

[info@erikvisser.com]

Hello,

I was wondering if it would be possible to set a crop window for a document which is movable per page, instead of making a new crop window for each page.

The attachment is a sample if how I think it could work (although this way it changes all the pages instead of the one page.
And instead of holding the crop windows it would be nice to just grab any area of the page and drag the crop window to fit.
This would save me a lot of time.

Hello, info@erikvisser.com

I am afriad that separate controls per-page is not something we plan to offer at the moment, there is a bit of a workaround that might make this faster/easier.

when you apply the "crop" to all pages, ensure that the options to "remove" cropped content are not checked. And apply the desired size of the crop area to the document, like so:

After you have done this, select each page via the thumbnail pane, when you open the crop dialogue after making this selection, you will see that the "selected" page is highlighted by default, and that the full page content is still present, allowing you to quickly adjust the crop area, for that specific page (ensuring all pages are the same size, but with varying crop positions):

then finally, once you are all done with these adjustments, you can use the "remove cropped content" tool, to quickly get rid of the items beyond the crop borders:

I hope this helps!

Kind regards,
