Cropping Tab

Left Crop. Spinner. The amount of image that was cropped from the left side of the film.

Width Used. Spinner. The amount of film actually scanned for the image. This value is not stored permanently; it multiplies the left and right cropping values. Normally it is 1, so that the left and right crop are the fraction of the image width that was cropped on that size. But if you have film measurements in mm, say, you can enter all the measurements in mm and they will eventually be converted to relative values.

Right Crop. Spinner. The relative amount of the width that was cropped from the right.

Top Crop. Spinner. The relative amount of the height that was cropped.

Height Used. Spinner. The actual height of the scanned portion of the image, though this is an arbitrary value.

Bottom Crop. Spinner. The relative amount of the height that was cropped along the bottom.

Effective Center. 2 Spinners. The optic center falls, by definition, at the center of the padded-up (uncropped) image. These values show the location of the optic center in the U and V coordinates of the original image. You can also change them to achieve a specified center, and corresponding cropping values will be created.

Maintain original aspect. Checkbox. When checked, changing the effective image center will be done in a way that maintains the original image aspect ratio, which minimizes user confusion and workflow impact.
