P: Ability to name custom crops and have more than 5

I would like to be able to name custom crops in Lightroom. Saving them as ratios is great but one step further would be the ability to give them a relative name for certain projects or uses.Perhaps also not limit me to 5 custom ratios.

Crops are one of the few places in LR where you can’t save them as presets. There are two old, relatively popular feature requests that would solve this: Allowing named crop ratios (and more than 5), and allowing crops to be stored in presets. Either one is pretty simple to implement but Adobe has ignored the feature requests.

 

Check out the Any Crop plugin in the meantime.

I agree. It is much needed!

The Any Crop plugin lets you create named crop presets.

If we can have dozens of similar color profiles, we cn surely have more than 5 custom aspect ratios.  Retyping the same odd numbers repeatedly seems inappropriate for an advanced computer program.

Adobe please offer the ability to manage custom crop ratios.  It would be very useful to have the ability to delete, reorder and name custom crop ratios

Is there a way to create a new Aspect Ratio and have that size always available to select from the dropdown menu as shown below:

The last 3 "Custom Crops" are always shown at the bottom but they are not permanant and do not have a description.  Having a permanant ratio and description has be asked for several times
