Hello everyone. This is something that I have wondered about for a long time.
It's a question about the crop tool in CS3 [on an iMac] and also Elements 5 [on a Windows PC].
When I make a montage with several pictures, each picture being on it's own layer, if I find that I want to crop one picture but nothing else. I select the correct layer and crop the photo the way I want it. My thinking is that only that picture will be cropped and everything else will remain the same. However, what happens is that every layer is cropped and I lose everything except the cropped picture and the background [the background is cropped also]. All the layers are still there, but there's nothing on them.
Is there a way to crop the selected layer so that everything else stays like it was?
Thanks in advance - Russ
