Perspective Crop

We’re all familiar with the Crop tool and we know what it does. What happends if the object we want to crop is distorted, viewed from one side and we need a front view of it? That’s what Perspective Crop is for.

Let’s take this sample picture of a street sign.

We need this sign as seen from the front. In order to do this, we use the crop tool and we drag an area around the sign. Right under the Menu, you will see the contextual menu of the Crop tool… make sureĀ you checkĀ the Perspective box, which is unchecked by default.

After you check that box, you can click and drag the corners of the Crop box anywhere you wish. Grab them and position the corners over the corners of the sign, like this:

When you’re done just hit Enter and voila the result:
