Example of Golden Ratio cropping
Breaks the image in thirds, horizontally and vertically (equidistant lines) into nine parts thus providing a better visual aid to decide
a crop. You can commit or cancel a crop suggestion. The crop overlay is decided based on the W and H options in the options bar. For example,
your main subject (A tree, person, or animal) can be at 2/3rd of the horizon coinciding with one of the lines.
Creates a grid guide on the image. Use the grid to position objects before you crop the image.
The Golden Ratio provides a guideline for placement of objects in a photograph. Positioning objects in the picture along the lines
and intersections of this grid makes an image visually appealing. With Golden Ratio grid, you can position an important part of the image. For
example, an eye or ornament or a leaf at the point of focus which is highlighted with a concentric circle in the grid.
Use the Swap height and width icon to rotate the grid. Depending on the aspect ratio of the crop box (tall or wide), the vertical or horizontal flip
option is displayed.
In the Tool Options bar, click Flip to flip the golden ratio grid horizontally or vertically. The Golden Ratio crop can be rotated clockwise or counter
clockwise. The behavior of the flip button is:
If crop dimensions are such that width is greater than height in crop options bar then a horizontal flip appears (which is shown
graphically) as the button.
If crop dimensions are such that width is less then height in crop options bar then a vertical flip button appears (which is shown
graphically) as the button.
No crop guide overlay is displayed inside the bounding box.
Use the Cookie Cutter tool
The Cookie Cutter tool crops a photo into a shape that you choose. After you drag the shape in your photo, you can move and resize the
bounding box until you have just the area you want.
Use the Cookie Cutter tool to clip a photo into a fun shape.
1. Select the Cookie Cutter tool.
