    Lightroom help needed

    I have Lightroom 3.6 and all of a sudden I cannot crop a Pano!!! It doesn't matter what setting I adjust, it crops all sides whether I like it or not All I want to be able to do again is take a bit off the top and bottom without losing anything from the sides.. All help on this much appreciated

    In the crop tool, there are several options.

    Aspect
    Original
    Angle
    Constrain to Wrap

    Have a look at the ORIGINAL drop down menu. This menu let you set crop ratio's and lock them. You may have inadvertently selected an option here that has locked your aspect ratio.

    Easy fix Z, On the R/H panel up the top there is a "Lock" symbol, You must have locked it , Locked keeps the original ratio while cropping , Just click on it to "Unlock" then you can crop any side at will , If you cant see it let me know and I'll post a screen shot

    Ricks quicker of the mark than me , But at least we both came to the same conclusion
