What happened to the crop tool?

[davidd89]

This is so ludacris how far you guys want to deep dive into AI generative fill. To the point I cannot just simply adjust a crop on my layer without the program constantly forcing a fill.

Can we remove this, its making my work flow with photoshop 1000000 times harder now.

Thank you,

With the Crop Tool if you set the Fill to either Background (default) or Transparent (default) then Photoshop won't do any

filling.

In addition to what Jeff said, the options for the tools are sticky, meaning that changes stay across time and across documents until they are changed again or the tool is reset. 

Try this: right-click the Crop tool in the options bar (not Tools panel) and choose Reset tool from the context sensitive menu.

Yes, and here's a screenshot, so people can see where to set it back. Also, you don't have to have an image open to set it and from here, it will stick as you like!

This is so ludacris

Jeff's got the right answer…Adobe did not take away either of the old options, you just have to put the Crop tool back into one of those fill modes and you won’t have to wait for generative AI to make something up.

(Also, on a different subject, the word is spelled “ludicrous”…“Ludacris” is a stage name for a celebrity)
