question: when/how does the crop tool save the selected ratio?

[Daniel Bauer-2]

Hi,

When I use the crop tool I can select a ratio (2:3, 1:1, whatever).
Sometimes it remembers my selection for the next image, sometimes it
does not. I haven't found out on what it depends when it remembers my
selection...

Sometimes it is a bit annoying when cropping a series and each time I
must select the same ratio again. It's not a big deal, but if I could
"force" digikam somehow to remember it, that would be great.

Can I do that? How?

Is a bug, the idea is that depending on the orientation of the image the
aspect ratio value is stored. At the moment both aspect ratio values are saved
but always the aspect ratio value for landscape is read.

Thank you for the explanation, Maik. So I just have to first select the
aspect ratio in a landscape image and voila :-)
