I just can't seem to find a way of being able to resize the crop area... I am right in thinking that this is supposed to be possible right? I thought that's what the 'allow resizing' checkbox was for in the imagecache preset. I have tried every combination of settings I can think of, Firefox, Internet explorer, Sea Monkey... I just never get the resize handles on the corners.

Every thing else works as I expect it to, just no resize handles. I get a crop box which I can drag about the image, and I can use the drop down to rezise the image a little, but that is a little inflexible and a pain to use. Really, I need to be able to resize the crop area by dragging the corners.

I know that this is supposed to be possible - I have read all the threads in the issue queue. I have seen the patches for being able to retain the aspect ratio when resizing... but how to I get to be able to resize in the first place?!

To answer my own question - it seems that jquery ui 1.7.2 is required (I had 1.6 installed). Can we get this information on the project page please and installation instructions please?

Worth noting also that http://drupal.org/node/388384#comment-1530114 is required for resizing correctly.

Marking this one as fixed... but I'm going to open a new ticket that asks for updated documentation that details these requirements clearly.

i have the same issue, but this does not fix my problem. using jquery 2.x dev solves the issue that the region is draggable again, but not resizable.

I did this with jQuery 1.7.3, as I described here: http://drupal.org/node/388384#comment-3267066

That all worked, but the region is also not resizable for me. I got around that by resizing the image. Unfortunately when the image is large, the tool to resize the image disappears, probably behind the image. To get around that I turn off styles in my browser, resize the image then turn styles back on. Then I refresh the page and drag my region on the resized image.

It's not perfect, obviously, but it does the job.

CORRECTION: Resizing DOES work for me. I had it turned off in my imagecache preset. Still, turning off styles might be a work around for you if it your resizing doesn't work.

Using the latest dev with jquery ui 1.7.3 and i confirm that the fix works.
