Either explain the crop procedure or change it to work more like other photo-editing software.

I would like to know how to crop properly. The help site seems to show 2 rectangles drawn, and crop deletes the material between the 2 rectangles. However, I cannot draw 2 rectangles with the program. As I trace the second, the first is erased. If I try to crop with only 1 rectangle, then the desired portion inside the rectangle gets deleted. Not good. It doesn't matter which option I choose in Options; cut or color both affect the desired material inside the rectangle. Your method of cropping seems toally opposite of the method used in other photo-altering software. So you either need to give better instructions, or change the method.

Photo Toolbox use the selection tools and the crop command to performing cropping operation.
First, users must know how to create a selection.(http://www.photo-toolbox.com/features/lasso-marquee-selection-tool.html)
After creating a selection of the unwanted area, you can continue to crop.
There're two types of effects may be applied to the picture:
1. If the selection doesn't contain a whole border or the picture, the region will be filled with the selected solid color.
2. Otherwise, the border of picture will be cut off. The size of image will be deflated

Thanks for your suggestions. We'll improve this procedure to be more convenient in the future.
