ACR 12.3 Crop Tool – Lock image position when cropping

When using the crop tool in ACR 12.3, the underlying image moves around the canvas when the crop size is adjusted. This is very disorienting, and can cause the image to jump from one position on the screen to another when changing the orientation of the crop.

 

Is there a way to lock the image so that it doesn’t move when adjusting the crop?

If you hold down the Alt/Option key the underlying image doesn't move but the behavior is to constrain the ratio. 

Otherwise AFAIK, no; this is the new behavior of the crop tool.
