Do not confuse the Crop option with the feature of changing size. When you change the height or width of an image, the programme automatically rescales it and changes the other value respectively – the view of the picture does not change. However with the use of the Crop option you can remove unwanted portions of the picture while the size of the essential part remains unchanged.
