In previous versions of Photosuite when you click crop you get the options to change the crop shapes (Square, circle etc). In Photosuite 11 for the life of me I can't see how you change the shapes for cropping. Can anyone help?

With your image open. click on the middle tab, it resembles a Tool box, but it's now labeled 'Change Objects' when you mouse over it. Try using Mask/Cutout by Shape from that menu list.

Thanks for the reply. That will work, however why would they take that option away from the crop option. Now I have to go to this option cut the shape out then delete the original and make that the new item I'm working on. Takes many more steps

Did you try the first option, "Cut It Out" ? That should just leave the area you want and delete the rest.

That did work, thanks.  I still don't know why they change the way it worked before.

Glad that works for you. I'm not sure why they changed it. I've had PhotoSuite since v9, and it's been this way. Maybe just the price of progress ...
