Put crop in the Effect Controls please

Would love the ability to crop an image without having to mask, or search and add Crop from the Effects panel. This sounds silly and lazy, but it’s something I’m doing over and over in sizzle editing, where I have to make all graphics, animations and mock ups for advertising, for example.

Please consider adding Crop into Effect Controls.

A 4-point polygon mask makes a small box and you have to drag the points. (holding shift, and getting it just right visually) I want Crop embedded because I want to adjust the edges with numbers, quickly.

Also, a request for the order to be 'Top' on top:
Top
Left
Right
Bottom

A cropper can dream... 🙂
Thank you!

This was always a mystery for me why the crop tool is not in the default panel - please add and make the premiere life easier. Thank you

Also an invert option for the crop would be good.

Yes! The crop tool should be an intrinsic effect in the ECP!

One workaround would be to apply the Crop effect to the entire timeline of clips. And there it will be, listed among the standard tools for every clip.

But not, unfortunately, with parameters arranged spatially.

Literally the one thing I would choose to add if I had a choice. Drives me crazy adding crop continually from the effects panel.
