Please Bring Back the “Constrain Crop” Option in Adobe Camera Raw

Please bring back the “Constrain Crop” option that was available in previous versions of Adobe Camera Raw.

This feature automatically adjusted the crop boundary when an image was rotated, preventing empty or transparent areas from appearing around the edges. It was extremely useful for photographers who need to straighten and crop large numbers of images quickly.

In the latest version, this option is no longer available, which makes the cropping workflow much slower and less convenient. Users now have to manually adjust the crop after every rotation, even though the previous feature handled this automatically with a single checkbox.

Removing this option feels like a significant step backward, especially for professional photographers who process hundreds or thousands of images at a time. Please restore the original “Constrain Crop” checkbox, or provide an equivalent option that users can enable or disable depending on their workflow.

This was a simple but essential feature, and bringing it back would greatly improve the efficiency of Adobe Camera Raw.
