I am using Photoshop Elements 2. I scan an image into PE2 with Visioneer software that came with my Visioneer 7300 scanner. Once an image is scanned into PE2, the border of the image often isn’t where I want it to be, because I often and inadvertently scan in a bit of blank area around the edge of an image. I try to remove that extra blank part around the image with the crop tool. However, when I use the crop tool, as I approach the edge of the image from about 1/4 of an inch away from the edge of the image, the selection border of the crop tool jumps to the edge of the whole image, including the blank portion which I am trying to leave out of the crop. This prevents me from moving the selection border in fine increments, so I can include the image right up to the point at which the blank area starts. With the way the crop tool operates now, I have to trim about 1/4 of an inch off the photo near its edges to prevent the inclusion of the blank area in the crop.
Is there any way of turning off this feature in which the selection border of the crop tool jumps to the edge of the whole scan (including the blank part of what was scanned), so I have more control over the selection border near the edges of the image?
I hope this is clear.
Thanks.
