Can I save custom aspects in the Crop Tool?

I'm working with Photoshop Lightroom CC (1.2).

The Crop tool offers 8 aspects. I would like to replace several of them with aspects that I regularly used. (For example, I would like to have 11x4 instead of 8.5x11 and 2x1 instead of 16x9).

I was able to do this in Lightroom Classic, but I can't find a way to do it the new Lightroom.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

I think the only option you have, is to create a Custom Crop visually, then click the lock icon to preserve those values.  That would only save one though.

This isn't meant to be funny or flippant. But the answer for now at least is to use Lightroom Classic CC. That option isn't available in Lightroom CC. I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but one of the objectives of Lightroom CC is to have a consistent interface across all devices. And maybe it's taking time to provide that consistency for all features. I'm not part of the development team, I'm not associated with Adobe at all. It just seems to me that with the development of Lightroom CC the engineers are having to kind of think outside of the box a little bit. And I think users are going to have to do the same. Maybe I'm wrong.
