Selection versus saved result
The shaded outside area is excluded from the saved picture. Drawing another selection never changes your original file; undo and reset restore earlier settings. Crop coordinates refer to the top-left corner of the picture after its rotation has been applied.
Inspect rotation and the crop boundary
Rotation is in 90-degree steps, with horizontal and vertical flipping. Rotating swaps dimensions and resets the selection to the complete picture so you can choose a fresh boundary. Cropping removes pixels; it does not erase an object and reconstruct what was behind it.
Common questions
Can I crop with a keyboard?
Arrow keys move the selection and resize the focused corner handle. You can also enter X, Y, width and height directly in the advanced crop controls.
