Yes, the information you can enter manually in the cropping module is an aspect ratio, not an actual dimension. You can enter dimensions in the export module, which is a bounding box that the image will be scaled to fit within. Neither of these do what you seem to want to do, which is take an exact sized crop from your image. This can be difficult with larger-than-screen images in darktable... you need to view the image at 100% for the cropping guide movement to be pixel-precise, which is very awkward, but that's the only method I've found for the times when I've wanted to do this. The alternative is allowing a margin, then final cropping with an external application, which isn't terribly convenient. -- jys ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to [email protected]
