What is the fix for constarined crop aspect ratio changing when the image is rotated

I've migrated through LR 3, 4 and now 5 up to 5.4. I have been able to set a crop aspect ratio and synch pictures to that ratio as well as other editing selections. When I edit a particular picture and rotate it , the aspect ratio has stayed constant - to the value originally selected.I've never had a problem and it has consistantly worked properly even through last weeks editing activities. Now, when I set aspect ratio and then rotate, the aspect ratio really changes. If I go back and reset aspect ratio and select Done, it seems to be ok. This issue seems to perform wrong with portrait orientation but not in the landscape orientation. I have uninstalled LR, gone through registry cleanup, reinstalled LR, claened up the registry but nothing gets better. I do note that the settings aren't totally removed as the reinstalled software wants to pick up where I left it prior to uninstalling. As best as I can tell, all of my settings and preferences are the same as last week. It works on last weeks folders but not on new ones.
I have now seen many forum write-ups about this problem but have never found any solution. Help - I can't go through life cropping and straightening images sideways.

Here is a thread that I think addresses this problem.  There were MULTIPLE bugs in the crop tool when Lr5.0 came out, probably due to adding the Upright Tool, but they are slowly getting worked out.  Maybe this one will be fixed in Lr 5.5

  • What is the fix for Windows 8.1 users who receive the request to register repeatedly?

    I've tried the RegEdit method posted, but the instructions are somewhat different that my registry keys. Under Adobe Acrobat I have "8.0" and when I enter I have four more folders.  Under Registration I have a default key with "2" and a serial key with my serial number.  I've deleted Acrobat once and reloaded and have the same error.  I can X out and the app works until I open it again.  Then the same registration issue.

  • How to check for different crop aspect ratios

    The problem I'm having is that I have hundreds of images that I need to send to a photo print lab. Before sending off my images I have to make sure they all will fit correctly for 8x10 prints (5:4 aspect ratio) and other ratios but I need to keep them cropped in my camera's default 3:2 aspect ratio for people who want to buy 4x6 prints.
    So what I do when I open all my images in Bridge's Camera RAW browser is fit and crop any images that need cropping but using the 3:2 aspect ratio. I then need to check to see if my crop will work as an 8x10 crop picture so that nobody's heads are cut off, etc. The problem Bridge is giving me is that when I crop the first time it doesn't allow me to check another crop without losing the original first crop. For example, I do my first crop as an 3:2 aspect ratio and then when I click on 5:4 to check for 8x10 prints it resizes the crop area which lets me check the crop for 5:4 but when I go back to 3:2 it doesn't go back to the original crop so I have recrop the original crop from memory. Is there any way to solve this problem? Basically crop it twice without loosing the first crop so that I can go back.
    Also is there any way to quickly click on all aspect ratios like 5x7, 8x10, etc and have the crop centered in the image so that I can quickly check if anything is cut off? My lab is a high volume automated photo lab so they crop by using the center of each picture and I can only give them one image per person. Most of my images don't need cropping because I try to do it in camera but I have to check to see if they will fit for other crop sizes. Currently Bridge makes me create the crop size manually and then visually center the crop over my image. I would prefer quick buttons that when clicked on will show me what the crop will look like in different crop ratios. Is there anyway to do that?
    Thanks for any help you can give me

    You might want to try this in Adobe Lightroom (it uses the same Camera Raw
    engine as PS and Bridge).
    In the develop mode you can use the crop tool with presets and custom
    options that works faster and has an easier and better history tool to
    retrieve your original crop setting than Camera raw in Bridge and PS has to
    offer.
    I would prefer quick buttons that when clicked on will show me what the crop
    will look like in different crop ratios. Is there anyway to do that?

  • Cropping aspect ratio changes randomly

    Each time I crop a new image, the aspect ratio seems to change randomly. Sometimes it will pop up as "Do Not Constrain." Sometimes it will appear as 4x5. Or 2x3. Etc. You get the idea. I have no idea why it's changing. It's very disruptive to the workflow. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?
    I encounter the issue on both my MacBook Pro and my iMac.

    Thanks, Stan.
    I just posted a draft video on Youtube for a client last night.  Not sure if viewing a clip of what I see will help you but I suspect it will.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_hzhCeCGR0
    If you go to about 4:34 in the clip you'll see it change over to a different aspect ratio.
    This sequence was exported directly from PPro CS4 to FLV.  The FLV file was uploaded to Youtube.
    I'm editing this morning and just came across this same issue again.
    I'm amazed that none of my clients have mentioned it yet.  Of course, I'm not making Hollywood movies - these are just short videos people send out to college coaches.
    Thanks,

  • Aspect Ratio changes after the project was reopend

    hello everyone,
    I have a project with mov-files with apect ratio 1,0, I wanted to change them to 1,33, so I went to interpret footage and change it to 1,33. Then I synchronized the mov-files with audio and made merged clips (all in 1,33). After that I saved the project and open it again and then the original mov-files are back to 1,0, the merged clips are in 1,33, but with a 1,0 footage (so the clips have black bars left and right). Does someone know what could be the problem? Am I doing something wrong so the footage won`t stay in new aspect ratio?

  • Aspect ratio changes when importing to FCE 4.0.1

    I'm hoping someone with a better understanding of FCE will be able to help...
    I have footage shot in 1920x1080 (16:9) format. I have the sequence set to any of the available 1920x1080 (16:9) formats via Easy Setup. Create a new Sequence with the correct settings. However when importing the footage into FCE it converts to a 1440x1080 (4:3) aspect ratio... This I understand is the anamorphic format of 4:3. What am I supposed to do so that when importing, the original format is not altered.

    I do know what 4:3 is and what 16:9 is. First, understand that there is no HD format, none, that is 4:3. They are all widescreen. 1440 is a way of compressing the media to use a limited data rate more efficiently by applying it to a smaller frame size while maintaining the standard display size. The material is displayed at full widescreen. If you have 1440 material in FCE you have probably noticed that the canvas is not 4:3. The canvas is widescreen. That's the display size.
    Actually HDV's native format is not 1920. The native format agreed by the HDV consortium is 1440x1080 for 1080i material. That's the compression size. The display size is 1920. HDV is normally shot and compressed to 1440x1080 in camera. That's the native size of the frame.
    The HV20 is an HDV camera. The CX12 is not. It's an AVCHD camera. That's a different format. They are not the same, and they compress media in entirely different ways. HDV is an older format that compresses to MPEG-2. AVCHD uses H.264 in MPEG-4. Neither of them are production formats. They are both compression formats that were designed for delivery, compressing group of frames. In their original format they are almost impossible to edit, which is why FCE and other applications convert the media to a production format that uses individual frame compression so you can edit exact frames. HDV is either 1280x720 or 1440x1080 (displayed as 1920). AVCHD is either 1440x1080 or 1920x1080, both displayed as 1920x1080. You can also have 1280x720 AVCHD, though I don't know any camera that actually shoots that excellent format.
    "The footage resides on my computer." Perhaps you'd bother telling us how you got it into your computer. What application did you use? Every application will handle the ingest of this media in a different way, consequently it may not work properly with this application. I assumed you used the application this forum is about to bring this material into your computer. Did you, or did you ingest it with something else? How did you get it into the computer for you to import in FCE? Once again the correct size for this material is very likely 1440x1080. That's the native size for HDV sequences that are 1080. In 4.0.1 you can have sequences that are 1920x1080. These are designed to accommodate that AVCHD material shot at 1920x1080. Not all AVCHD material is in that size, and frankly there is no real advantage to it, and probably some disadvantages as the same data rate has to be used for a largely frame size.
    All this said, I'm not sure what you're hoping and waiting for.

  • Aspect ratio changes when editing

    I've imported a number of clips DV-format widescreen 16:9.
    They look fine and I can put them togehter as a project.
    However when I delete parts of a clip when they reside in the event library (lower part of the iMovie 08 window). The remaining parts of the clip change into 4:3 aspect ratio. Untouched clips (from the same import) stay in 16:9
    The clip-parts that are already in the projectlibrary stay ok in 16:9
    I am doing something wrong or did I ran into a bug ?
    Thx

    My edited clips changed to .mov. The deleted ones were already altered, so I am not sure wether that's the result of the editing (which is logic) or from the deletion (sounds strange to me). The untouched clips still have .DV and again that makes sense.

  • Unwanted aspect ratio change when copying

    PSE 10
    When copying from one image to another, the width of the selection reduces but the height remains the same. The resolution of both images is the same.

    Try this:
    In Editor, go to the expert tab.
    Open picture B, the one you wish to select something from to add to another picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the object. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position object from picture B.
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and object B on a separate layer.

  • Can you lock aspect ratio, define border and image size with automated BatchCropStraighten?

    Hello everybody,
    I need to crop and straighten a load of scanned rectangular stamps that will start as a single scanned image, and I want to lock the aspect ratio to 1:1, define the top border size (such that the the borders on the sides will be bigger than those top and bottom) and specify the output image size.
    Does anybody know if this is possible using the automates BatchCropStraighten function?
    Thanks,
    Paul

    I know of no BatchCropStraighten feature in Photoshop.  Photoshop has a Plugin CropPhotosAuto that you access through menu File>Automate>Crop and Straighten Photos.
    On my windows system its "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Required\Plug-Ins\Automate\CropPhotosAuto.8li". This plug-in is designed to help you scan several image with a single scan. All the plug-in does is to look at the current active document looking for what appears to be a scanned image and to create an additional document that contain a straighten version of the image the size of the image. No files are created nothing is saved only one document is processed even if you had several scans open in Photoshop.  When the Plug-in ends the current active document is the last document the plugin created.
    You may be able to program a Photoshop script that would fit the create documents to some size then add canvas that would make all the documents have the same Aspect ratio and size. The borders added would be equally sizes on opposite sides top and bottom the same left and right the same.  However the image aspect ration inside the borders may vary.
    I created a fake scan with five simulated images. Not straight and not all rectangles  and duped the document so two would be open the used File>Automate>Crop and Straighten Photos when the process finished I spread out the document so you could see all that are open in this screen capture.

  • Pasting problem between sequences. Aspect Ratio changes. Help

    Hi. I'm fairly new to FCP so be patient with me. I shot HD using the Panasonic format 1080i. I transferred the footage from the SDHC cards using Apple Pro Res 422, 1920x1080. Everything was going fine in editing until I tried to copy and paste clips from one sequence in the timeline into another sequence. The aspect ratio changed in the clips I pasted. I tried to figure out what to do by looking at Sequence Settings and Clip Properties but to no avail.
    Any suggestions? I am building separate sequences and then need to paste these together to make a QT movie or DVD for client so need help asap. I've previously worked with JVC HD cams using the 720p24 codec and never had this trouble when cutting and pasting.
    Help!!

    This is not weird at all. One sequence is set to use square pixels (1920x1080) the other is using non-square pixels (1440x1080).
    You need to fix the non-square pixel timeline.
    The simplest to understand method to fix the non-square sequence issue is to create a new sequence with the proper settings then copy your material over from the non-conforming sequence.
    To get a new sequence with the proper settings (if you have FCP7) all you need to do is "create new sequence" then drop one of the clips into the new empty timeline. If the settings do not match, when the program asks you if you want to change the sequence to match the clips, say yes.
    Then select all the clips in the non-conformed timeline and copy and past them in the new correct timeline.

    This is a comment on why you might, or might not, want to use the built-in Application Firewall.
    The firewall blocks incoming network traffic, regardless of origin, on a per-application basis. By default it's off, and when turned on, it allows applications digitally signed by Apple, and only those applications, to listen on the network. It does not block outgoing traffic, nor can it distinguish between different sources of incoming traffic, nor does it filter traffic by content.
    No matter how it's configured, the firewall is not, as some imagine, a malware filter. If that's what you expect it to do, forget it. All it will do is bombard you with pointless alerts.
    Consider some scenarios in which you may expect the firewall to be useful.
    1. You enable file sharing, and you allow guest access to certain folders. That means you want people on your local network, but not outsiders, to be able to access those shared folders without having to enter a password. In the default configuration, the firewall will allow that to happen. The router prevents outsiders from accessing the shares, whether the application firewall is on or off. But if your computer is portable and you connect it to an untrusted network such as a public hotspot, the firewall will still allow access to anyone, which is not what you want. It does not protect you in this scenario.
    2. You unknowingly install a trojan that steals your data and uploads it to a remote server. The firewall, no matter how it's configured, will not block that outgoing traffic. It does nothing to protect you from that threat.
    3. A more likely scenario: The web browser or the router is compromised by an attacker. The attack redirects all web traffic to a bogus server. The firewall does not protect you from this threat.
    4. You're running a public web server. Your router forwards TCP connection requests on port 80 to your Mac, and the connections are accepted by the built-in web server, which is codesigned by Apple. The application firewall, still configured as above, allows this to happen. An attacker hacks into the system and tries to hijack port 80 and replace the built-in web server with one that he controls. The good news here is that the firewall does protect you; it blocks incoming connections to the malicious server and alerts you. But the bad news is that you've been rooted. The attacker who can do all this can just as easily turn off the firewall, in which case it doesn't protect you after all.
    5. You're running a Minecraft server on the local network. It listens on a high-numbered port. You, as administrator, have reconfigured the firewall to pass this traffic. An attacker is able to log in to a standard account on the server. He figures out how to crash Minecraft, or he just waits for you to quit it, and then he binds his own, malicious, Minecraft server to the same port. The firewall blocks his server, and because he's not an administrator, he can't do anything about it. In this scenario, the security is genuine.
    6. Here is a more realistic scenario in which you might have reason to enable the firewall. Your MacBook has sharing services enabled. You want those services to be available to others on a home or office network. When you're on those networks, the firewall should be off. When you move to an untrusted network, you can either turn off all the services, or enable the firewall with a non-default configuration to block them. Blocking is easier: one click instead of several.

    I have win7 and firefox

    You are right — insofar as this forum is for the Shockwave Player, the plug-in for content created with Director.
    However, many years ago Macromedia decided to call their brand new player for Flash content "Shockwave Flash", presumably in an effort to piggy-back on the mind-share that Shockwave had already gained. This has caused endless confusion ever since, especially now that the Flash Player keeps crashing. Take my advice and (search then) post on the Flash Player forum — you'll see any number of threads about crashes, presumably with some recommended fixes too

  • What is the fix for a wireless keyboard that eats batteries?

    What is the fix for a relatively new wireless keyboard that eats batteries?

    Part of it may be something in the battery reporting software.
    I got my first wireless Apple KB with a new iMac last November (2011) and, disliking the abbreviated design for desktop use, bought a wired board for the iMac and appointed the wireless to be the travel keyboard for my MacBook Pro. I used it on a routine basis and the battery level stayed at 100 percent until June, when it suddenly read 50 percent. Today it's still 50 percent. Makes absolutely no sense but it works.
    It's been on most of the time, including a couple of trips when I failed to turn it off and it was running in my backpack for days. It still ahs the batteries Apple shipped with it.
    My Magic Trackpad and Magic Mouse,  on the other hand, showed normal battery decay over time when connected to the same computer
    If the keyboard stops working, that's one thing but, if you are seeing odd percentage reports and the thing still works, just keep using it until it dies. A couple of spares in the computer bag take very little space.
    I've not seen a battery calibration feature mentioned for input devices like we have for the "smart" batteries in notebook Macs.
