Lightroom - this is annoying

[jerry12953]

If I enter a cropping ratio of 91:61 (actually 1.492:1 +/-) it crops to 1.5:1.

I know it's only a fraction of a mm, but is there any way round this?

Can't find a way - even putting in bigger numbers doesn't help. I hate it when software tries to be a little too smart!

Strange when it doesn't have a problem with 1.63:1.14 (for example).....

I'm guessing it only goes down to two decimal places for the absolute ratio?

What happens if you try 1.49:1 ?

 

[jerry12953]

I hadn't thought of that because, if that was the case, I assumed that 1.492 would be rounded down to 1.49. Thanks for the suggestion!

 

[jerry12953]

1.49:1 doesn't work, either

bummer a little surprising though. perchance it's just a matter of it being able to actually get that ratio with the pixels available since it isn't resizing it.

EG, with the ratio you're choosing, if the crop isn't a certain size then it can;t divide the pixels correctly to give you what you want.
