Hey all

One of the most important tools I use is the crop tool, and mine's gone all wonky. When I ask it to crop an image, it frames it as per normal, then crops it...but wayyy farther down than I want it to. It crops the image down to 1 pixel. Yep. One teeny tiny barely visible square of grey murk.

It's done this with both TIFFs and jpegs as I shot a lot at horse shows in jpeg to save space.

I have been doing batching, ie when adding my name and copyright to the images, but that's long after the cropping's been done. In the toolbar fields it says width 1 pixel, height is blank, as is the resolution field.

What did I do? And how the hell do I undo it?! Any help tremendously appreciated!!!

If it says 1px in the width field prior to cropping, that will cause this behavior.

Press the "Clear" button to empty all those fields.
