It would be really nice to have a way better "custom ratios"-option than we have now. I have just explored On1 and a couple of other good software, and in them this function is way more advanced and can hold unlimited custom aspect ratios.
I use a variety of customs so I need to save more than the three possible.

This is a forum for technical support from other Lightroom users. There is a different forum for feature requests that Adobe will read ... the link is on the main page of this forum

Thanks, dj_paige. Didn't know that and as you ca see there is a "Feature request" tag in here 🙂

The "feature request" tag here does not mean that Adobe will see your feature request, in general they don't read this forum for feature requests (they created another forum for that).

Also if you could define fixed ratios (like in cm or inches)
This is contradictory. A ratio is not a dimension. A ratio of -say- 3/2 is the same thing as a ratio of 6/4 or 360/240. It's just a comparaison of the 2 sides. 3/2 means than the larger side of the image (being expressed in pixels, cm or inches) is one and a half longer than the smaller side.
An image printed at 30x45cm and an image printed at 6x4inches are both in a ratio of 3/2, although not the same size.
You don't know the size of an image until you print it at a pecific DPI. An image of 3000x2000 pixels can give a printed image of 30x45 cm as well as a printed image of 6x4 inches.

I deleted the last bit. It was confusing, I admit.

Many people have asked for this over the years. Please add your constructive opinion to this feature request:

and be sure to click Vote and Follow in the upper-right corner. That will make it a little more likely that Adobe will consider implementing the feature and you'll be notified when they do.
You might consider the Any Crop plugin, which lets you create as many named crop presets as you want. It also lets you crop to exact dimensions (pixels or cm/PPI or in/PPI).
