### 6.25. Crop Image

You can crop image in two ways:

- Crop to selection

- Crop to content

#### 6.25.1. Crop to selection

The Crop to Selection command crops the image to the boundary of the selection by removing any strips at the edges whose contents are all completely unselected. Areas which are partially selected (for example, by feathering) are not cropped. If the selection has been feathered, cropping is performed on the external limit of the feathered area. If there is no selection for the image, the menu entry is disabled.

| Poznámka
This command crops all of the image layers. To crop the active layer only, use the Crop to selection command from the Layer menu.

You can access this command from the menu through Image → Crop to Selection.

#### 6.25.2. Crop to content

The Crop to content command removes the borders from an image. It searches the layers for the largest possible border area that is all the same color, and then crops this area from the image, as if you had used the Crop tool.
