After 2.3- 2.4 no crop guide overlay

After upgrading from LR 2.3 to 2.4 (Mac) I can no longer see the crop guide overlays when using the Crop Tool. No overlay shows, no matter what choice I make in View > Crop Guide Overlay. Anything I can do to show Crop Guide Overlays in LR 2.4?

Use O to toggle through the types of overlay, but importantly, make sure the item under View called Tool Overlay is set to Auto or Always. If these don't stick, delete Preferences, How to locate Preferences files in LR. Takes just a few minutes to go through and reset as you like it.

Why is my Crop Guide Overlay dropdown missing?

Can someone explaing to me why my Crop Guide Overlay dropdown is missing?
Adobe Photoshop CS4.
I'm sorry, I'm very frustrated. There used to be a day when you could click on help and it would bring up help topics on the product you purchased. Now, I get a website with CS5, CS6 and whatever else. I can't find the answer to my problem, I've been searching for too long now so I'm posting here.
Thank you in advance.

What Crop Guide Overlay are you expecting?
Something you've seen in a later version of Photoshop, perhaps?
Later versions of Photoshop offer more things, like a Rule of Thirds overlay. As far as I remember, Photoshop CS4 simply didn't have that, and showed you just what you're seeing in the screen grab you posted..
You could emulate a rule of thirds grid, I suppose, by creating both Horizontal and Vertical guides at 33% and 67%. But they will not move as you change the crop dimensions.

Is this a bug in cropping guide?

I have an image in Develop, with at least one side panel off. I turn on the crop guide (r), and image goes blurry. Turn it off, and image goes sharp again. No "Loading" at the bottom. Seems to show more on a horizontal image, but that may be because it is larger. Sometimes it seems worse than others, so it may be a system problem. Here is my system info.

Yes, I did understand what you were saying. But as I said, it shows up with no change it image size. If I have a horizontal image open in Develop, set on Fit, with both sidebars off (tab), and the top & bottom bars minimized. The image almost fills the screen. Now, if I hit R, so the guide appears, the image size does not change, the only difference is the guides are on. Sometimes the image will fuzz, and sometimes not. The "Loading" is not showing at the bottom. And, as I said, the only reason that the images I uploaded are different, is because I did a poor job not getting the marguee the same. When I did a screen capture, and brought them into PS to crop them down, they were identical size. The more I play around with it, the more I am thinking it is not a bug, just something to do with rendering. This shoot that I used for the images, was real bad about this while I was working through it. Now, two days later, none of the images show any signs of this at all. Go figure.
Photo Printer,
There is a rendering bug that Adobe is aware of regarding partially rendered (or stuck unrendered) images in Develop module while in Fit mode (usually remedied by resizing the "fit" window smaller, etc.), but I'm not sure that is what you were seeing.

Elements 7 ACR Version and crop guides

Two questions:
First, what is the latest version of ACR that I can use with Elements 7?
Second, Elements 7 has no crop guides such as rule of thirds, golden section etc. Is there a way of creating these a different way?

I am not sure you are looking for technical crop guides like those:

I imagine you rather want guides to compose and choose your final cropping.
- For cropping, you could use the 'aspect ratio' in the crop tool or rectangular marquee tool and specify heigth and width.
- To get visual guides on a separate layer, you could draw your own templates, or probably use third party add-ons. I'll get back if I find some of them.

Where can I get the After Effects CS6 (not CS3) user's guide.

Where can I get the After Effects CS6 (not CS3) user's guide. I want Adobe's, not a third party.

Todd,
Thanks a ton. I've done searches from search engines, and I've looked at this page many times, but I had not seen this link.
I really apprreciate your help--though you probably think it was a dumb question.

Does Illustrator Have "Golden Ratio", "Rule Of Thirds" And Other Crop Guides Like Photoshop Does?

I recently discovered that the crop tool in Photoshop allows you to cycle through several guides when cropping an image, such as the "Golden Ratio" spiral, or the "Rule Of Thirds" grid and a few more. I don't see anything like this in the crop tool for Illustrator. Does anyone know if this type of feature is buried away within Illustrator as well?

neohtom,
I am afraid it is buried too deep (in the heap of (im)possibilities) to surface soon.

I I made a PDF fie to preview, but am still apprehensive to actually order the book, as I have ordered some prints of photos after I thought i had them cropped correctly and prints returned with heads, half of bodies have a book formatted and ready to buy

I have formatted a photo book, but am apprehensive to push the "buy" button as I have ordered prints that I thought were cropped correctly, and they returned with heads cut off and half of bodies mising. I have put the book on a PDF file as instucted, please reassure me that if everything looks right there, that is the way the book will look??

If the PDF looks good then the printed copy should be OK. The only problem you might run into is the color rendering. As long as none of your photos use the sRGB profile and not the Adobe RGB color profile the color should be fine.
On those prints that were cropped incorrectly: did you copy them to the print size ordered before uploading for printing? If not then they will be cropped by the printing equipment and you'll lose part of the top and bottom of the print (for landscape prints).

I've created a Photoshop PDF and all the text is editbale after passing through indesign to add crop marks and bleeds - one line now isn't editable, what's causing this

I've created a Photoshop PDF and all the text is editable in the resulting PDF.
The PDF created by Photoshop is completely editable, all text! I put it through indesign so I could add crop marks and reduce the pdf file size and now all the text is editable except one line!
I've not used any faux styles or effects...what could be causing this?
Thanks!

Crop tool and rule of thirds

I do not recall earlier versions of PS having the 3 column grid display after you draw a crop. Is the idea to place the focal point of what you want in the image into one of the three colulmns? If so, what is the best way to approach placing the focal point into the rows?
Thanks.

The "rule of thirds" and 75% opacity always show up as the settings, regardless of the fact that I'd changed them in my previous cropping session.
Changed Crop Guide Overlay-settings seem to keep after a restart of the application on my station.

Aperture Crop Features vs Lightroom

I have been running the Aperture trial and I like the look of version 3 and its nice integration with Mac and other significant features.
But, I really like the crop guide overlays in Lightroom (there are about 4 of them). Are there plug-ins that would offer the same overlays in Aperture?
Also, I can't seem to control the brightness in the part of the image that is outside of the cropped area when working on the crop. Is there any way to do this in Aperture?
These seem like small things but for me critical in the creative process. Any ideas/info on this?

The Lightroom overlays are nice. Go to Lr (if you have it), go to crop mode ("r"), and then cycle through the overlays by pressing "o".
Afaik, this is not available in Ap3. Recommend via "Aperture>>Provide Aperture Feedback".

Crop tool now displays a Diagonal. The "apply during import" panel has gone away!! Any help appreciated!!

My Crop Tool now displays a Diagonal instead of a "Rule of Thirds". I do not know why or how to correct.
Secondly, the "Apply During Import" portion of the right hand panel has disappeared. Thus I am unable to use custom setting while importing. I don't really know if this happened during upgrade to LR5.4 or not.
Any help greatly appreciated!!!

You probably pressed the O key which cycles through the crop overlays when the crop tool is enabled.
Click Tools / Crop Guide Overlay in Develop to see the various choices.

After paste attributes(transform and crop), it is strange crop...

Hi everybody~
I did copy from one clip and then paste attributes to same positon, scale , and crop.
But after that, like that above image, crop is problem.
Of course I replaced source clip again and no problem.
But I want to know why that problem occured.
Help me~

What about the frame size of the project?
I tried with two clip recorded with my MBP's iSight camera (at 640x480).
On a 640x480 project, I could not make the problem occur. Paste atributes worked correctly.
On an 1080p project, the problem manifested itself. It seems that pasting atributes somehow messes up the spatial conform parameter: while it still shows as "Fit", it appears as if it were set to "None", as far as I can tell.
(Of course, such an error has not effect when the dimensions of the clip coincide with those of the project it is in).

Image disappears after cropping

After all adjustments are made, then crop image-use command to crop-image disappears. I have a blank image in navigator cropped and no image. Does anybody have an answer. PS3 was working fine last night. I woke the mac up and this starts happening.

This really helps. My resize was set to 8x10 pixels instead of inches. Then it kept defaulting to pixels when I would type any number in the box. To solve that problem you need to click on Window and select Info from the dropdown box. Then you have to click on the little arrow in the upper right hand corner of the Info box and select Info Panel Options. Then you can change the default to "inches". There must be an easier way to do that but I'm not sure what it is.
