    I think this is the third thread in the last few days regarding perspective crop issues, so I wonder if something is going on? 

    The last thread just needed the values cleared from the Options Bar

    Clear the perspective constraint values from the regular crop tool. For example, if you have 1:1 ratio for a square crop, delete the number 1 from both boxes.

      If the screen is going black, that does suggest a Graphics card or driver problem. Can you uncheck Use Graphics Processor and see if you have the same problem?

        Hello,

         

        I'm having the same issue. 

         

        I recently upgraded to Mac OSX 10.15.1.

        I'm running the latest version of Photoshop CC.

         

        I had thought that dissabling the graphics processor would work (I noticed that my mac's Nvidia GPU is no longer supported by apple - so I'm stuck with out of date drivers), however dissabling it in preferences did not solve the issue.

         

        Has there been any movement on this issue?

         

        Thanks,

        Ben

        Hi fotonut,

        Could you please have a look at this article? as it might be helpful for understanding the perspective crop tool. Crop and straighten photos in Photoshop

        Also, could you please let us know which exact version of Photoshop you're working on and which operating system are you using?

        Could you try deselecting "Use Graphics Processor" located in Photoshop's Preferences > Performance, then relaunch Photoshop and let us know if it helps with the cropping?

        Regards,
        Sahil
