   Hey @convey-mane , there seems to be a merge conflict now. Could you maybe 
fix this? Thanks.

>                 Key: CB-10033
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-10033
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: cordova-plugin-camera
>         Environment: iOS
>            Reporter: Manfred at Convey
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: feature, iOS

> On iOS there's only that very insufficient inflexible cropping square – 
> compared to Android or WinMobile – which moreover obviously doesn’t work 
> properly (see CB-9930, CB-2648).
> As we need a flexible, sizable rectangle, we implemented that in our fork of 
> the camera plugin.
> And with that we even already submitted a [pull 
> request|https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/pull/131].
> (being very new to Cordova we didn’t realize, that there obviously has to be 
> such a JIRA issue, before).
> To be downward compatible and to not urge others, for whom that square may be 
> sufficient, it is made parametrizable via a new preference (as this is iOS 
> specific and nothing that has to be changeable at runtime), defaulting to 
> false.
> If the plugin is called with option allowEdit == true, then setting this new 
> preference to true suppresses that standard (fairly useless) square for 
> cropping the photo, even suppresses the (then also useless) view of the photo 
> with the "Retake"- and "Use Photo"-buttons, but instead offers a resizable 
> cropping rectangle (with "Redo" and "Save“).
> More detail about how it’s implemented can be found in the comment of the 
> mentioned pull request;
> and as there already started a discussion, I added more detail and thoughts 
> [here|https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/pull/131#issuecomment-156117731]
>  and 
> [here|https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-camera/pull/131#issuecomment-156988289].
> We think others could use and want that, too – in the standard plug in.
> Yes, it is platform specific, but on Android and WinMobile it’s already 
> possible to crop with a flexible rectangle (somehow – knowing, that Android 
> also isn’t really satisfying).
> I also emailed d...@cordova.apache.org with a 
> [proposal|http://callback.markmail.org/thread/5bjkv4ukymo6ybot].
