Cropped Areas Truly Cropped!

 

*Adobe Bridge CS4 and Adobe Camera Raw 5 Tip*

When you grab the Crop tool ( C ) and crop a photo in Camera Raw, you can now see the final cropped image without having to open the image in Photoshop.  Once your cropping border is in place, just change tools (or double-click the Crop tool icon at the top of the window), and you’ll see the cropped version (in previous versions, the cropped-away area was still visible; it was just dimmed).  If you need to adjust the crop, simply switch back to the Crop tool and the cropping border reappears.

Viewing and Basking in your Image

When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
