PL8 Cropping

[mstphoto (Mike Stephen)]

I’m new to Photolab and enjoying it so far.
A simple (?) question.
I can crop to 5x4 but how do I crop to 4x5?
TIA

Drag one of the crop rectangle corners until it flips orientation.

Like Keith said, you can drag the corners and the orientation will change. You can also add your own crop factors, just by typing it in the crop factor box (ie.: 4x5, or 19x21, or whatever)

Thanks Keith
I was looking for an icon to click to change from a landscape crop to portrait crop as in Photoshop.

Cheers Vincent.
I tried that but it still remained as a landscape crop

You use mac version ?
PL8 windows does not allow me to have both horizontal and vertical same ratio. (if I type 3x4, it selects and use 4x3 ratio).

@mstphoto
here is how to do it with mouse :

@JoPoV

if I type 3x4, it selects and use 4x3 ratio

It will select 4x3 also if you type 6x8.
This keeps the list compact.

This is why I was wondering how :

could work ?

If I enter 4x5, i get 5x4 selected and used.

Ah yes, I do use Mac. Maybe it’s different in Win version?

[JoPoV]

Yes, it is.
