Vector Border Crop

CrystalKeeper7

I think it would be a great addition to be able to crop vector images to the screen size, or to be able to crop them at all, with a border crop option. This would be helpful in a lot of cases, especially when you are trying to make a vector scrolling platformer that has all images in a grid. I think this option would help a lot of people.

Support! I also had this problem a lot. It would make it much easier!

Support, I would use this a lot. It would also be helpful for making logos, you could drag it off-screen to made it have a straight edge :)

Hmm… What type of GUI systems would we use to crop our drawings and images? Please elaborate more.

I'm not quite sure what you mean, but I was thinking you could just use what you used for the vector eraser and then delete the objects that have then been cut off.

That just makes it more harder to understand, this is the opposite of elaborating. Not trying to be rude.

Well I'm not quite sure what you mean, as I have no idea what they use to cut anything off. I'm just suggesting to see if they can make a tool that deletes every part of a vector image that is outside the 480x360 border, like in bitmap.

Oh, that clarifies everything. I support, this could really make things easier and better.

No support, I need the extra space. Sometimes (when selecting stuff to group or whatever) I have to move a background color while I'm doin it, and this would make it smaller

Actually, the space would not be deleted. Just an optional tool to crop it or not.

Yeah, as violet_raven said, it's an option. There's a button that you click to crop it, and it gets cropped. It's not automatic.

Not quite :(

I'll tell you all something: look at the number of the last post. If it is divisible by 20, you'll create a new page!

The message above may contain wrong information, rude remarks, or something embarrassing to my current self. In this case, please ignore it and remember that I likely wrote it back when I didn't know what “respect” truly meant. I really hate thinking about it again.

This topic still stands - even with the new editor. You can't get a straight edge with the eraser.

So, bump.
