dyanmic crop: fixed aspect ratio?
« on: 2017 August 25 19:40:56 »
I would have expected that dragging a corner of the crop area would preserve the aspect ratio of the box. Does not seem to do this, however. I there some key press while dragging or other trick to dragging with a fixed crop-box aspect ratio?

Hi Alex,

Press Ctrl (Cmd on macOS) while you are dragging the mouse to preserve aspect ratio of the cropping rectangle. Also works with rotated rectangles. This is a new feature in PixInsight 1.8.5.
