Crop Tool: This is used to crop and resize the entire image. The crop tool removes any pixels outside a crop box and changes the canvas size at the same time. To crop the image, select the Crop Tool from the tool well. Then adjust the corner handles of the crop tool overlay. The area outside the crop box appears darkened for guidance. You can resize and move the image inside the crop box. When you are satisfied with your settings, press the Apply button in the Tool Options Bar or press enter.

Moving the Image: To move the image inside the crop box, simply click and drag inside the box. You can also nudge the image using the arrow keys on your keyboard.

Resizing a Crop Box: To resize the Crop Box, click and drag on any of the resize handles. Clicking on a corner handle allows you to adjust two sides at the same time. Clicking on a side handle allows you to adjust that side. If you hold the shift key down while adjusting the size, the proportions of the box are maintained. To rotate the crop box, move outside a corner until the tool changes to rotate. You can also set the aspect ratio or size of the crop box in the tool options bar.

The Crop tool is not available when using a Smart Photo.
