Crop Image — Reference

Extract a rectangle from a loaded image.

Extract a rectangle from a loaded image.

  • A supported image-processing runtime and a disposable test image. Load the named processing instance before effect, transform or Save steps.

Extract a rectangle from a loaded image.

Setting Meaning
ImageSelect the named Load Image instance available earlier in this action. It is not a filename or an App Connect page component.
XHorizontal placement in the current image. Start with a positive pixel coordinate such as 10. Alignment keywords and percentages have operation-specific semantics.
YVertical placement in the current image. Start with a positive pixel coordinate. Text coordinates involve font baseline behavior and differ from a crop rectangle.
WidthThe target width in pixels. In Resize, auto leaves this dimension proportional to the supplied height; supported percentage values refer to the current image. Use positive integers for Crop and Cover examples.
HeightThe target height in pixels. In Resize, auto leaves this dimension proportional to the supplied width; supported percentages refer to the current image.

For an 80 × 60 image, use X 10, Y 10, Width 40 and Height 30. Save and confirm a 40 × 30 result showing the selected region.

Coordinates and dimensions refer to the current processed image, so earlier resize or rotation steps change their meaning. Keep the rectangle within the image bounds. Crop removes pixels; it does not proportionally fit the full image into a new box.

Image Processor operations run on the server. For transformations, use a named Load Image, apply the intended operations to that instance, and Save it to a deliberate path. A page image component will not automatically update just because an in-memory server instance changed. Return or persist the saved path and update the page’s source as needed.

You can configure the selected image operation and inspect a saved result for the intended dimensions or visual effect.
