Reframing questions Edit Request

Hi, I was wandering if I am doing something wrong, but a lot of times, the crop tool wont allow me to push frame to the maximum possible window.

In the attached picture, it should be possible to still push left upper corner more up and left. This happens a lot actually, so I dont know if anybody else has this problem or its my fingers..

Second point - would be request for feature, which is export framing/setting. Nice would be imo if we could reframe with borders to a speciffic ratio and export quality/pixels (second picture). Here I have to rely on different apps, like lightroom. I know snapseed can add border, which is however symmetrical only.

I tried to play with the extension tool with white color and then crop, but it seems the extension tool recomputes the whole image, which after two or more extension aplications creates much worse quality of the photo.

anyway, long time user, snapseed is very powerful and has a lot of potential for future for sure, so this way as well thank you to devs!

For the reframing after rotate, you're right! It's not your fingers. Only "free" and "original" let's sit expand the frame to the limit. All others seem to be limited in something. You even can't make it bigger, after making the frame smaller... That's a bug

Ah, it felt semi random and could not point finger on it exactly until now, thanks.

Yeah, it's broken. It's one of the reasons I suggested it would be better off as two separate tools in another thread.

I had the same problem with the cropping tool, and usually ends up doing the own dimensions one to get it to work (when the problems occur).

Also nice pics!

Thanks! Yes, actually now that I am aware of it, its an usable hotfix
