ACR: the cropping tool has "popped" out of the main "Edit" panel

Report · Mar 18, 2024

Good morning.
With the latest versions of ACR, the cropping tool has "popped" out of the main "Edit" panel into a new, separate panel. This bothers me VERY MUCH. I waste a lot of time switching between "home panel <> cropping tool" for each photo. And I process a lot of them... I would like the cropping tool to return to the main tool panel.
How to do it?

Either I ask the designers to do it or let the user decide for themselves in the latest version of ACR.

Perhaps your referring to the Geometry panel which was moved to be nested with the Crop Tool in Camera Raw 16.2

The actual Crop Tool has been in the same location for several versions of Camera Raw.
