Crop tool

[Sepiana]

Major Major,

I did three separate searches. First I entered the word vignette in the search box. Then to make sure I was not missing anything I did two more searches -- one using the phrase add vignette and another one using create vignette.

Sepiana -

Are we both talking about the search box on the main PET home page? Because, as I said, my results were very different.

Major Major,

I used the Search the site box. The word vignette alone yielded the five tuts I mentioned in my previous post --

Portrait Finishing Touches
The Boom Vignette
Create Three Classic Film Looks
Making Effective Vignettes
Editing and Creating a Vignette Effect

-- along with the tut on using the Guided Edit vignette effect (Tips and Tricks).

Very odd. Here's what I get as my first 5 hits for "vignette".

Major Major,

If you look at this link which I posted previously, you will notice I get the same first five tuts you do. You need to go beyond them to find the ones on "vignette" which I listed.

Search results for "vignette"

The inclusion of the other tuts can be explained by what Joe said in his post. In this case PET's search engine looked for any tut/article in which the word vignette was used.

The actual post may or may not be about vignettes, but the word does appear in that thread. BTW, try searching for "vignette" rather than "vignettes". It can make a big difference in the number of threads found.

That's why I suggested you also searched using the phrases -- "add vignette" and "create vignette".

Sepiana -

Okay., thanks. It would be nice if there was an option to search by title only.

[QUOTE=Major Major;620203]Probably another stupid question...

The help manual says the crop tool is in the toolbox (or whatever term they use) -- they even show the cute little crop tool icon. But I sure can't find it. I can get to a crop tool in guided edit mode, but isn't it available in full edit mode?



I always go to IMAGES at the top bar. CROP is one of the choices.

Good thought. I didn't realize that you could use this option without something selected.
