Common errors & troubleshooting
Important subject was cut off
Cause: Cover crop keeps the target ratio by trimming edges.
Fix: Pan the frame, zoom out, switch anchor, or use freeform / smart crop tools when appropriate.
Output looks soft after crop
Cause: Output size larger than the cropped pixel window upscales.
Fix: Lower output width/height to at most the crop window size.
