Installation


Install the Image Crop Ratios module.

Configuration


  • Default aspect ratios for all image fields can be defined in the module config.
  • Aspect ratios for specific image fields can be defined on the Input tab of the field settings.
  • You can override the ratio settings in template context if needed.
  • Insert a hyphen as the first item in the ratio settings unless you want to force a ratio to be applied to the crop tool. The hyphen represents a blank option that allows a free crop area to be drawn.

  2. Click the "Crop" icon at the top of the editor window.
  3. Choose an option from the "Ratio" select dropdown.
