Restore the Resolution box for the standard crop tool. Taking this away was not a good idea and adds to the workflow. Also would give consistency with the perspective crop tool which indeed does have the Resolution Box

just press the R button when the crop tool is active and it'll do the trick (almost) its not as convenient but it certainly helps 😉

I don't understand why you all got rid of the resolution box with the crop tool in PhotoShop CS6. With previous versions, I could click the crop tool, type in the dimensions and resolution, and crop. Now, after cropping an image, I have to go through the additional step of going to Image Size just to set the resolution. I use the crop tool a lot, so this is a big problem for me. Please add the resolution box back to the crop tool.

It's ridiculous that Adobe took this feature out of the basic crop toolbar. Yeah, I could open a menu item to get this feature but why should I have to? Adobe supposedly removed the feature to prevent mistakes on the part of beginners, but people don't spend $600+ on a program not to learn to use it efficiently and effectively. Adobe took pains in its many JDI features to make Photoshop easier to use by incorporating features many users felt should have been in the program all along, so why remove one of the fundamental, useful features in the Crop toolbar.

Adobe: Please release a patch that restores the Resolution field to the Crop toolbar.

Just to be clear I am referring to Photoshop CS6
