It used to be possible to set the resolution in the crop tool. In my newest version of psd this option seems gone.

I want to crop large images (300dpi) to a smaller size and lower resolution (72 dpi).

Does anybody know how to do this in the latest psd version?

Thank you very much

Correct answer davescm

In Photoshop, choose the crop tool

Go to the left box in the options bar and click on the down arrow then choose "W x H resolution"

Fill in the boxes with whatever dimensions and resolution you require

WHY change the interface and dumb down what was already in my menu? I set up a workflow that has saved me time processing projects. Now when I update Photoshop, it takes hours to find hidden interface changes. ALL the time I saved over the past few years is LOST to the UI being dumbed down.
