6. Developing and Editing > Cropping and rotating images

Cropping and rotating images

The Crop Overlay tool makes it simple to improve your composition, crop away unwanted edge detail, and even straighten your image.

1. Click to select the raw image DSC_6058.NEF in the Filmstrip.

2. If you’re not already in the Develop module, press the D key or choose View > Go To Develop. Hide the Filmstrip and the left panel group to expand the work area; you’ll find keyboard shortcuts for showing and hiding any or all of the workspace panels listed beside the commands in the Window > Panels menu. If you’re not already in the Loupe view, press the D key again, or click the Loupe view button (Image) in the Toolbar. If you don’t see the Toolbar, press the T key.

3. Click the Crop Overlay tool (Image)button just below the Histogram panel, or press R. A crop overlay rectangle appears on the image in the Loupe view and a control pane for the Crop Overlay tool opens above the Basic panel.
