Perspective control with crop tool?

This may have already been addressed somewhere in the archives but I've been away from this forum for quite some time, so forgive me if it's an old topic.
Anyway, I've recently been on location photographing a variety of architectural exteriors and interiors and would love having a perspective correction - heck, why not go for the gold and ask for a 'Free Transform' option! - as part of the crop tool.  Granted, there is 'sorta' that in the lens correction tools, but not quite the same.

There have been a few posts asking for a better UI to control the perspective correction.  Personally I favour the photoshop crop transform approach too.

  • Perspective setting for crop tool

    Is there a perspective setting for the crop tool in OS Elements 11?

    That action doesn't ship with photoshop elements.
    I recorded the action in the full version of photoshop for use in photoshop elements.
    You can download the Crop with Perspective action from here:
    https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=sCtr20eu02Ei92ALhVZWow
    After you download the Crop with Perspective.zip, unzip the file and load the action from within pse 11 Actions panel.
    Steps to use the action:
    1. Play the Crop with Perspective action and you'll get a square crop (bounding box) at the center of the image.
    2. Drag the corner handles (highlighted in red above) to the corners of the object in the image you want to straighten
    3. Sometimes the above is enough and you can hit the green check mark to complete the crop.
        Though i usually draw out the center handles (highlighted in yellow above and red below) to the corners of the document to get more freedom
         for the final crop of the image
    4. Result after hitting the green check mark to complete the crop.
    6. After using the crop tool to crop just the grid.

  • Trouble with crop tool

    i think i may have hit a key or combination of keys that did something in pse. Now when i try to use the crop tool, and click the green check mark... my project that I am working on just turns in to a grey box in my project bin and disapears from the work area!! ugh! what did i do wrong?!

    In the crop tool's option bar, top left, there is a tiny arrow. Click on that and reset the tool.
    Report back with your progress.

  • PS CS6 issue with crop tool: graphic glitches

    I am using Photoshop CS6 v13.1.2 and I'm experiencing an issue with the crop tool. Whenever I use the crop tool, move the frame around and then zoom in on the image, the image becomes noisy, pixelated or has other 'graphic glitches'. I changed the PS preferences to not use the GPU and then rebooted the computer. Still the same issue without the GPU.
    Running on Mac OS 10.8.3, iMac 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6970M.
    Is there another workaround to use this tool until it might get fixed? Thank you.

    I've seen the same issue from time to time on windows 13.01.1 usually only on rather large pixel dimension documents.
    Does it make a difference if you flatten the image before using the crop tool?
    Also, using the classic mode for the crop tool doesn't seem to have that glitch.

  • Lightroom 5.7, beachball of death with crop tool

    With latest CC LightRoom 5.7.1 and latest Mac OS on Retina iMac, every time I use the crop tool and try to view different possibilities there is a very long delay. Any suggestions please?

    The "open with" command is used to open images that are already in Lightroom in another external editor such as Photoshop or Photoshop Elements or some other photo editing program. And you are opening an image that you are already seeing in Lightroom. So Lightroom won't be on the list and cannot be on the list because you are already looking at the images in Lightroom.
    Concerning the images that you moved to the external hard drive, if you actually moved them using Lightroom then you should be able to see that external hard drive in the library module library tree and be able to choose that folder. Then the images will be in Lightroom and you can continue working on them. There doesn't need to be any "open with" to do that. If you moved those images some other way, please explain.

  • Perspective correction via crop tool.

    I have always used the crop tool to correct skewed lines, both vertically and horizontally.  Not sure how to do it in the new Beta Version.

    Perspective Crop is now its own tool. It is just under the Crop Tool stack.

  • Cropping Layers with Crop Tool in Photoshop CC 2014?

    I have been trying to find out if the crop tool can be used in Photoshop CC 2014 to crop layers individually rather than the entire file, and I am not finding any answers through any searches. I can't even find a standard Abode How-to for cropping in the CC version. Is the Marquee tool still the only (best) way to crop an individual layer?
    Also, I have been looking at a crop tool tutorial for the CC version that seems a bit opaque to me in the way it's written (Adobe Photoshop CC for Photographers), and it refers to a Crop options fly-out menu, but I can't find any way to access this.

    The Crop tool is not designed for the job you would like done. As you have seen, it crops the entire image.
    Instead, use the Rectangular Marquee tool to frame the area you would like to maintain. (Sample 1)
    Then choose Select > Inverse. It will select the area to be removed.
    Then tap the Delete key. Result is Sample 2)

  • Rotating with crop tool unpredictable (CS3)

    Hi there
    I'm cropping images using the crop tool, but when I rotate the crop area and then apply the crop the result is not what I expect – it rotates only fractionally and sometimes distorts the image as well. I am resampling as I do this (ie. I have set a width, height and resolution for the crop). If I clear this there are no problems.
    Any idea why this might be the case?

    Hi Pierre,
    Adobe fixed it partially in CS4; crop+rotate+downsample worked on a flat background layer, but still showed the unexpected results on any pixel layers. A very observant and dedicated CS5 pre-release tester (ahem... and handsome too, I might add) caught it in CS5 beta and all works well now.  I think that had been around... jeeze, since  PS6?

  • Perspective Control with Elements 6 (Mac)

    Since I changed to a Mac a few years back I have been using Photoshop Elements. What had been a very simple process in CS3 with Windows completely eludes me in Elements. In CS3 if I had a tall building with converging verticals I selected the image and dragged the two anchor points along the top together to do a simple correction. Press return and the job was done. Am I missing something blindingly obvious? Help please.

    Barbara
    Thank you for your suggestion which I found very helpful. I must admit however that it lacks the simplicity and speed of use of the Windows CS3 Crop/Perspective tool. In the process however I have discovered Elements features of which I was unaware and will be useful in the future. Once again many thanks to yourself and also Terri. Regards - Victor

  • Probelm with crop tool

    Suddenly when I try to crop, the crop area is properly defined but when I click "crop" the image is grayed out and in the lower right hand corner it tells me that the image size is 3/0 bytes. this happens to nay image since the first time it happened. Any ideas?
    Oh! it's PS cs5.1

    Damn you are GOOD! 
    Thanks you that was it. Don;t have a clue how it got there. I never use that field.  Fat fingers no doubt.
    Thanks again.

  • Crop Tool will only crop in a square

    No able to drag side of selected area with crop tool. Can only drag the corners.

    Chris, I get a wide rectangle with the crop icon, "Width" "Height" "Resolution ____ pixels/inch" [Front Image], and [Clear]   Somewhere I must have flipped some swithch, because it not allows me to control my cropping aspect ratio; however, I have no idea what I did !!
    I did have the options window displaying. It was in my left (of three) monitors, and I moved it back to the center monitor, but I assume that had nothing to do with my problem.
    Anyway, thanks ... its working!

  • Crop tool, image is hidden by grey box!

    I am having a problem with crop tool, image is hidden by grey box.  Using LR4 on Win7. 
    I have cropped successfully many times before, but a couple days ago, I suddenly had this strange problem.
    I assume I must have accidentally changed some setting by an accidental keystroke or something else? 
    I have tried opening and closing Lightroom several times.  I have the same problem on all images I try to crop.
    I cannot figure out why. Please advise!  thanks!!!

    If you leave the resolution box blank, whether the crop tool resamples or not then depends on the size units you choose in the width and height boxes. If pixel units are entered, the original resolution is preserved and resampling must occur to effect that. If inches are used, resampling does NOT occur.

  • Crop tool missing perspective control

    The new crop tool handling will take a bit of getting used to but one can always put it into "classic mode" so it handles in a similar way to CS5.
    The one thing that is now missing though is the perspective button that i found was a very useful feature of the crop tool, i hope that this can be added back to CS6 as to me this is a step backwards.
    Have i missed something and this facility is still there but hiding somewhere?

    Hold down the crop tool in the tool bar - you'll find the perspective crop as a sub tool

  • Crop tool won't drag with CC Photoshop 2014

    I have searched everywhere and talked with Adobe support through chat (they ended that abruptly??!), and Twitter and still have not had any resolution to this. I hope someone can help.
    I'm trying to do a simple crop. I've done it a million times with no problems BEFORE CC 2014.
    I select the crop tool and try to drag but it always stops immediately and selects the entire image as the Crop Preview.
    I've tried:
    using "Classic Mode"
    different Ratios/Resolutions
    uninstalling/re-installing
    installing the latest update - but that always fails. - I'll even completely uninstall, then when it goes to re-install it will install the one file (after a million attempts at failing to download it) and then fail on an update that it tries to install. I've tried at least 20 times. AT LEAST!!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!  Could it be my NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS? (I know that's not the reason for the failed downloads from Adobe servers - that's all on them.)

    I have spent a week trying to get this to work and now it just started working for all images. I have NO idea why.
    Here's what I did:
    1. uninstalled NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS drivers and reinstalled them
    2. uninstalled CC Photoshop 2014 (2x)
    3. clean install of CC Photoshop 2014 (2x)
    4. installed update (took dozens of tries before this actually downloaded and installed successfully unfortunately)
    5. clicked on the crop tool and tried to drag... nothing happened
    6. waited, waited and waited.. went about my other work and forgot about it and then after about 5 minutes the crop box appeared. I was able to adjust it too.
    No idea but I'm happy now.

  • Crop tool/perspective crop difficulties...

    I've been using CS6 for a little while, and like many others (and UNLIKE many), I'm not happy with the changes to the crop tool...  I found a number of discussions about the crop tool, but none appeared to address my simple difficulties...
    In past versions I created presets - for example, 1024x768x72ppi or 14 in x 11 in x 240 ppi.  I could very quickly apply a preset, and if my image was vertical instead of horizontal, I simply clicked the arrows between horizontal and vertical dimensions to switch the dimensions.  This capability appears to be gone from the CS6 crop tool.  How do I switch the dimensions in CS6?
    And, no, the perspective crop tool isn't an adequate replacement.  I can't find ANY way to do presets in that tool.  Nor do I seem to be able to find a setting to show the "rule of thirds" on the perspective crop.
    Was this thing changed just for the sake of change, or is there some SIGNIFICANT improvement somewhere in the tool that's not intuitively obvious to the uninformed observer?

    OK, I AM the dumbest human ever!  I could SWEAR I tried every button and switch and whatever on the crop tool.  But, it does indeed work as you said......
    Now I have a DIFFERENT problem....  I"ve gotta relearn how to crop to a size since it appears that selecting the 8.5x11 for example, does NOT give me an image size of 11 inches times the default resolution...  Another thing that's been consistent for X versions that I'll have to relearn...  Are you guys SURE the Adobe people didn't just change the way a bunch of this stuff works for giggles?
